Zurich

One of the worlds most exclusive shopping avenues, from the station to the lake.

The citys beloved lake for summer swims, boat trips and Alpine views.

A 13th-century church famed for its luminous Marc Chagall stained-glass windows.

Zurichs twin-towered Romanesque landmark; climb the Karlsturm for rooftop views.

The terrace of ETH university and a favourite student hangout, this south-facing platform gives a lovely panorama over Zurich and its old town. Ride the historic Polybahn funicular up from Central, then sprawl in the sun with a picnic – there’s a student bar (BQM) just below for a quick bite.
