Lausanne-based Brosky Media created this stunning three minute video of Vaud’s capital city, Lausanne. Watching this it is easy to imagine why Lord Byron, who lived there from 1788 to 1824,  James Mason, who lived there from 1963 to 1984, and Coco Chanel, who lived there from 1945 to 1971, all chose the city.

Some of the views in this video are similar to those that Coco Chanel would have enjoyed from her residence above the city near the Bois de Sauvabelin, a property later owned by David Bowie.
