Quick question. Are there enough activities or things to see in Bern to warrant a 24 hour visit?
Yes there are, but of course it depends on a person's own interests.
You should read the official tourist website to see if there are activities and things of interest to you to warrant a 24 hour visit.

Don't miss the Rose Garden to get a bird's eye view of Bern.
24??? More than that! I love Bern. Worth doing:
- Bern Munster (cathedral) and tower
- Zytglogge (giant cuckoo clock)
- general wandering through the streets of one of Europe's best-preserved medieval cities
- Bear Pit (although I understand if some have ethical reservations with it, we do too and found this a reasonable facility)
- Bern Historical Museum / Einstein Museum
- Tubing down the Aare river
Great responses! Thank you all!!
