It’s like walking back in time but even better like a perfect movie set where every building is perfectly positioned and specially preserved, where every street is clean and well maintained, where every tree and street lights are in tune with the buildings and overall everything around is in pristine condition ????❤️???? You can walk around everywhere it is very well organised and easy to navigate. The traditional Trams are very charming and worth the ride . The bicycles are good solutions is you in a hurry. Google map works perfectly they are many hot spots and free wi-fi zones too. Plenty to see from medieval Cathedrals to Alpine masterpieces and Renaissance, museums and galleries,shops and cafe and tavern style restaurants all with charm and character. Very easy on the eye and inviting streets and small piazzas with water futures and corners . Yes the water on the streets is drinkable and very delicious straight from the Alps ! Zürich has the cleanest and most well organised Old town in Europe and you can see it easily. The high Swiss ????????standards are not in the price but in what you get for it and the Old town is up to the highest standards in Europe???????????? Zurich has the cleanest air for European capital city and you’ll feel it referring ! Must see , must explore and must experience the Old Town by walking without rushing. Take time to enjoy, to sit for coffee and admire the atmosphere around you . Don’t rush in a 24 hours you can not see everything . Pick top 3 places of interest for the day and leave few hours to explore without planning and to enjoy! For the romantics that’s the perfect place and there is the bridge where you can put your lock of Love ???? ???? discover it ! ???????? For the historical places tickets online to skip the Q are better options. For shopping, boutique style of Local and High Fashion. For souvenirs few special shops only but no street junks . (No fast food , no any junks on the streets at all ) For picture perfect views of the Old Town- the University terrace, the high Square and the Cathedral Tower! It’s photographers place - no billboards on the buildings or streets no advertising no posters no commercial junk at all ! Beautiful clean well preserved architecture only! One practical advice - Comfy but smart wear it’s a must ! Swiss are very well smart dressed but understated and discreet (no flushing fashion and labels, no fashion statements) Don’t forget the phone chargers, battery extenders and converts if you planing on photos all day (the weird non EU - Swiss sockets need convertor). Most coffee shops and restaurants have where to plug in and recharge but Swiss style only! They usually have free wi-fi too but you need to ask for the password. One of the weird difference from other European capital City’s is that Speaking in high voice and making a noise is considered very rude and impolite! Do keep your voice down NO shouting and screaming in public places (it’s offensive)! Other than that keep it clean and be kind and you’ll be welcome everywhere ! Swiss in generally are very polite and welcoming for tourists ???? Go enjoy,make happy memories and share with the World ????????????????????????????????

The most happening place in all of Zurich. This place is located right on the heart of the city and was simply a treat to the eye at night. We stopped here for a quick photo session on our way back to hotel in our tour bus. The place was amazingly lit and had a row of pubs and restaurants with enthusiastic youths enjoying a summer evening. The opera house looked beautifule from here.

The square boasts a large Christmas Market during the months of November an December. it was absolutely spectacular. There are lots of different foods to try, an ice skating rink, little artisan craft shops and of course mulled wine! (Gluhwein) Keep in mind that the mulled wine is different in each location. Leave room to try a couple! it is located right by the opera house and is a required site to see during the Christmas time! As it is cold in the winter, there are lots of live fires to keep your hands warm as you move between the little shops! It is a very nice atmosphere with a lot of locals who were just stopping by for a quick chat and a good time!
