On the shores of Lake Zurich, you can sit and admire the Alps or watch the yachts sail by. And if the mountain air isn't enough to cool you off, many public bathing facilities open in the summer.

If it's adventure you're after, just wait for nightfall—drinking on the street is legal and Zurich’s nightlife is famous beyond Swiss borders. For daytime things to do, check out chocolatier Confiserie Sprüngli and then work off the calories by climbing the steep stairs and ladders to Grossmünster, the Great Church. With the 360-degree view at the top, you can see all your possible accommodations in Zurich, which range from luxury hotels to hostels. Zurich’s restaurants may be less diverse, but those that offer traditional Swiss food are popular with IgoUgo travelers.

Whether you’re headed to Zurich for fun or business, browsing photos by IgoUgo travelers is a great way to figure out what you want to see. Then all you have to do is pack your walking shoes, find a flight, and enjoy a city that offers everything from a medieval old town to snowy mountains to amazing chocolate. Close
