Take a trip to Zurich on your Switzerland Vacation
Nestled along the northern edge of Lake Zurich in the north-central region of Switzerland, Zurich is the country's largest city. Beyond its reputation as one of the globe's premier financial centres, Zurich is a living testament to history and cultural diversity, exemplified by its diverse array of museums. The Swiss National Museum, dedicated to Swiss cultural history, the Kunsthaus Zurich, renowned for its European art collection, and the Kunsthaus Zürich all showcase an impressive array of Swiss and international contemporary art.
The Limmat River will guide you through Zurich's vibrant streets, revealing a rich history evidenced by more than 50 museums and over 100 art galleries. Discover the twisting lanes through the medieval houses, guild halls, and Renaissance-era town halls, each telling the stories of Altstadt, Zurich's Old Town.
Walk through settlements tracing back to pre-Roman times in the Lindenhof District, Zurich's oldest. Enjoy dramatic views of Zurich's antiquity atop the Lindenhof Hill's Roman-era castle. This hilltop area is a mosaic of prehistoric, Roman, and medieval remnants holding the esteemed status of a Swiss heritage site of national significance. Traverse Zurich's historical districts, churches and old buildings and listen to the countless stories of Zurich's past, seamlessly integrated with the modern luxury of Bahnhofstrasse, home to some of the world's most exclusive stores.
