Geneva is one of the most remarkable and most celebrated cities in Europe.

제네바는 유럽에서 가장 주목할 만하고 가장 유명한 도시 중 하나입니다.

It derives its celebrity, however, not so much from its size, or from the magnificence of its edifices, as from the peculiar beauty of its situation, and from the circumstances of its history.

그러나 그 명성은 규모나 건축물의 웅장함 때문이 아니라, 그 위치의 독특한 아름다움과 역사적 배경에서 비롯된 것입니다.

Geneva is situated upon the confines of France, Switzerland, and Sardinia, at the outlet of the Lake of Geneva, which is perhaps the most beautiful, and certainly the most celebrated, lake in Switzerland.

제네바는 프랑스, ​​스위스, 사르디니아의 경계에 위치하며, 스위스에서 가장 아름답고 확실히 가장 유명한 호수인 제네바 호수의 출구에 있습니다.

It is shaped like a crescent,--that is, like the new moon, or rather like the moon after it is about four or five days old.

그것은 초승달 모양입니다. 즉, 초승달과 같거나, 오히려 달이 4~5일 정도 지난 후의 모습과 같습니다.

The lower end of the lake--that is, the end where Geneva is situated--lies in a comparatively open country, though vast ranges of lofty mountains, some of them covered with perpetual snow, are to be seen in the distance all around.

호수의 아래쪽 끝, 즉 제네바가 위치한 쪽은 비교적 탁 트인 지역에 있지만, 사방 멀리에는 높은 산맥이 펼쳐져 있고 그중 일부는 만년설로 덮여 있습니다.

All the country near, however, at this end of the lake, is gently undulating, and it is extremely fertile and beautiful.

그러나 이 호수 끝자락 근처의 모든 지역은 완만하게 물결치며 매우 비옥하고 아름답습니다.

There are a great many elegant country seats along the shore of the lake, and on the banks of the River Rhone, which flows out of it.

호숫가와 그 호숫가에서 흘러나오는 론 강둑에는 우아한 시골 저택들이 많이 있습니다.

The waters of the lake at this end, and of the river which issues from it, are very clear, and of a deep and beautiful blue color.

이쪽 끝에 있는 호수의 물과 거기에서 흘러나오는 강의 물은 매우 맑고 깊고 아름다운 푸른색을 띠고 있습니다.
