Zurich
Most famous on the international stage as Switzerland’s financial capital, elegant Zurich offers so much more. From galleries, opera and tranquil botanical gardens to world-class shopping and the best artisan chocolate on earth, this vibrant city oozes gothic grandeur and sophistication, whilst maintaining a modern edge in the trendy Zuri-West neighbourhood.
The epicentre of Swiss finance and gateway to some of the best skiing in the Alps, Zurich is often overshadowed by alpine adventures and chocolate box mountain villages. But this European powerhouse is a city of art, culture and luxury lifestyle, set to the backdrop of Lake Zurich and the atmospheric medieval old town. Stylish boutiques, world-class restaurants and over 30 museums line Zurich’s startlingly clean and ordered streets, whilst wine bars and trendy cafes sit on the lake edge. After dark, visit the eateries and bars in the old industrial district of Zuri-West, recently transformed into a beacon of modernity amongst the hallowed architecture of this imposing, sophisticated Swiss city.
