In the jewel case of the holiday kingdom, Sion is a rare pearl with a multitude of facets. The old town, which backs onto the Valère and Tourbillon hills, the chateaux, the museums tell us the history of the past. Propelled by modern means of road, rail and air communication, the present has spread into the new areas. Wishing to satisfy as far as possible all those who come for a visit, the town offers a vast range of sports, culture and gastronomy;: golf or walks along the irrigation canals, skiing or mountain excursions; art galleries, internationally known music festivals; a complete range of restaurants and wine cellars, where the wines which have ripened under the Valais sun can be tasted.
