The international city of Zurich offers superb shopping with an almost unlimited choice of everything you may wish to buy. In particular, there is the famous „Bahnhofstrasse“ area with its elegant boutiques, jewelleries, couturiers, bookshops, antique dealers, and banks which make up for the reputation as one of the world’s most attractive shopping areas. Excellent buys are watches, pocket knives, textiles, woodcarving, music boxes, embroideries, fine hankerchiefs and other handmade items.

Shops are generally open from 09:00 am to 06:30 pm weekdays, 09:00 am to 04:00 pm Saturdays; closed Sundays. But on some Sundays in December the stores are open for Christmas shopping

What to See and Do

Most of Zurich's interesting sights are located near its old town, around the river and lakefront. Whether you are interested in history, culture, shopping or nature, you would find something interesting in Zurich to see:

The Old Town: Niederdorf, which goes along the river, offers beautiful alleys, restaurants and shopping mainly aimed at younger consumers. On the other side of the river, the hill in the heart of the old town, Lindenhof, has a beautiful view of the city and one time location of a Roman fort.

Grossmünster and Fraumünster: The two main old churches are the historical highlights of the city. Grossmünster is a Romanesque church and the symbol of reformed Zurich, while Fraumünster is an Old Gothic church (former convent) with window paintings by Marc Chagall.

Museums: Landesmuseum, Kunsthaus (Art House) and Rietberg Museum offer great and unique collections about: Swiss History, Swiss and international Art and European collections of Asian art, respectively.

Nature Lovers: the lake is a beautiful place to spend the evening, especially when the scenery view towards the Alps is clear. A nice stop at the lake is the small but beautiful Chinese garden, which was offered by the Chinese city of Kunming as symbol of gratitude for helping with technical knowledge.

In 1815 Switzerland reached its present size. Today, Switzerland is a confederation of 26 cantons (states) and each of these has a considerable autonomy and its own constitution. The region of the Swiss Alps comprises about three fifths of the country.
