The bustling Bahnhofstrasse is a hot spot for visitors to Zurich in search of a little retail therapy. You’ll find everything from intimate boutiques to international brands, and stylish high-street fashion outlets. Winding its way through the Old Town to the River Limmat, Limmatquai is another dream destination for shoppers in Zurich - and the restaurants here are wonderful.
Jump aboard a Lake Zurich cruise for some of the prettiest views Zurich has to offer. As the sunlight dances on the water, take in charming lakeside villages and vineyard-covered hillsides - where elegant villas hide from the hustle and bustle of the city.
If the chic boutiques and busy streets get too much, make a beeline for one of Zurich’s peaceful and inviting green spaces. The Botanical Garden of the University of Zurich is wonderful to explore, and watching the ways the landscaped Belvoirpark follows the changing seasons is a joy whenever you visit. You’ll also find a range of hassle-free day trips whisking travelers into the countryside outside Zurich.
St. Peter’s Church is the city’s oldest parish church, Grossmünster dominates the skyline with its iconic Romanesque towers, and Wasserkirche takes pride of place on the Limmat River. These three top Zurich churches are havens of peace and calm, welcoming visitors for a moment of relaxation or reflection.
The Swiss National Museum (Landesmuseum) is one of the city’s top attractions, and brings centuries of colourful history to life. Travel from prehistory through the Middle Ages to the 20th century, through engaging displays of handicrafts, sculptures, and paintings.
Admire one of Switzerland’s most important art collections in the country’s largest gallery, at Kunsthaus Zürich. The collection includes paintings from the Early Renaissance through to the Romantic movement, Impressionist masterpieces, and provocative contemporary works. You’ll also find works by famous artists including Chagall, Picasso, and van Gogh.
More than 380 different species of wildlife have found a home at Zoo Zurich - across natural habitats including savanna, rainforest, and jungle. See how these wonderful creatures survive and thrive, and learn of the zoo’s diverse worldwide conservation projects.
The 17th-century Rathaus, or town hall, takes pride of place on the banks of the River Limmat. It’s open to the public and free to enter, and boasts beautiful Baroque and Renaissance architecture. Inside, visitors can admire historic objects and artworks which shine a light on political life in Zurich down the centuries.
