When Neeraj Chopra is not busy practicing his javelin throw, the Olympian likes to embark on lavish vacations. We, on the other hand, are just happy to get a visual tour of his exotic destinations. Recently, the Olympic champion jetted off to the wintry wonderland of Lucerne also known as the Gateway to Switzerland, to experience the “magical winter” there. He was accompanied by his friends and family. Snowy landscapes dominated the picturesque views seen in his Instagram video.

Snow-covered trees, frozen lakes, and snow-capped mountain peaks painted a picture of all-white bliss. Despite the freezing temperatures, Neeraj did not miss the opportunity to enjoy a tranquil boat ride. He offered glimpses of some famous tourist destinations including the Swiss Museum of Transport, the Chapel Bridge, and the Water Tower.

The popular Jesuit Church also made it to the video, leaving us in awe of its amazing architecture. Neeraj Chopra stopped in his tracks to soak in the beauty of the colourful and vintage buildings at Lucerne. One among them was Restaurant Fritschi. The diner's exterior boasted exquisite murals in an array of vivid hues, adding a pop of colour to the otherwise snow-white-sheathed city. The allure of the old town, with its historic charm and the nearby mountain excursions including Rigi, Pilatus, and Stanserhorn, make it a captivating that attracts tourists year after year.

Sharing his thoughts on experiencing a beautiful snowy winter in the city, Neeraj said, “I have been to Lucerne 4 or 5 times, but I love coming back here. I've never seen it in winter and am so glad I'm here now to experience the Lilu Light Festival. Everywhere I looked, I saw the most stunning display of light art and the most creative light installations by such a talented bunch of artists. It was amazing! There is so much you can do here — it was a bit rainy this morning, so we spent some time exploring the Swiss Museum of Transport it was great fun to see the huge variety of cars on show to be in simulated spacecraft and to try and to drive a train. There's also a beautiful Old Town to be explored, cruises on the lake as well a beautiful lakefront for a run.”
