Day-tours / Sports
If you’re looking for something to do in your time off, the city offers you a vast range of choices: Why not take a stroll, to shop or find hidden corners in the patchwork of alleys; or if the weather is hot, take dip in one of the many swimming pools and lidos.
Bahnhofstrasse & Niederdorf
The Bahnhofstrasse is ideal for shopping. This fabulous business mile, the most expensive street in the world, awaits you with exclusive fashion boutiques, department stores and street cafés. Niederdorf is also very popular with cafés, antique shops and fashion stores strung together.
Lakeside parks
The grassy parks on the lake shore are a hive of activity during the summer months. A popular meeting place for inline skaters, bathers, jewelry vendors and street artists.
Lidos
There are more lidos concentrated in Zurich than anywhere else in the world. These leisure centers are an ideal meeting point in summer. But they really come into their own after nightfall with open air cinema or improvisation theater on the lake and the river.
