Stans
Stans is the main town of the canton of Nidwalden, in central Switzerland, just south of Lake Lucerne. It has a small, quiet old centre with a large square and a church with a tall tower.
A cable car climbs from the nearby village to the Stanserhorn, a mountain with wide views. Stans is a calm base for the lake and for Lucerne.
