It's a great little town with the cheese factory just outside (all-Gruyere fondue is awesome decadence), and a beautiful castle on the top of the hill.
Oddly, it's also the location of HR Giger's museum/studio, and a bar he designed, which is worth it for the WTF factor http://www.vagabondish.com/wp-content/uploads/hr-giger-bar-2.jpg

OK, they are beautiful. One of my favourite things about The Apprentice is the aerial shots of London between scenes, and one of my favourite things is the view over London you get flying in to London City Airport from the north, over the Emirates/the City/St Pauls, looking right down the Thames then banking to go past Canary Wharf. Those photos are like a better version of doing some of that in real life.
