One Day Trip Zurich<\/p>\n

Zurich being the third and final destination on my trip to Switzerland. The previous two – Interlaken and Lucerne are quaint towns and the hotspots. Tourists descend here to revel in\u00a0 the scenic natural landscape for which they are famous for – misty mountains, lucid lakes and gurgling turquoise blue streams. Zurich on the other hand is a charming metropolis, and being the capital, is more developed and at par with any other European cities. An advantage\u00a0 that it has over a place like Interlaken is it\u2019s peaceful vibe as the percentage of tourists staying on here are comparatively less, and has the advantage of a wonderful system of trams, buses that\u00a0 are a convenient mode of transportation for travelers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Zurich\"<\/p>\n

Some of the top things to do, that can be squeezed in a one day trip to Zurich has been described in this blog.<\/p>\n

The banks of the quiet river Limmat is a great place to relax, digging into a sandwich, getting familiar with the culture, watching the happenings around\u00a0 – elated tourists going on boat rides, people sunbathing, sitting liesurely in groups and chatting, or health conscious aficionados doing workouts.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

NIEDERDORF\u00a0 – ONE DAY TRIP ZURICH<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

A popular area of Zurich is Niederdorf which stretches along the riverbank for a kilometer. This is the old part of town and of particular interest is the narrow, traffic free street named `Dorfli\u2019 making it safe and fun to stroll along. A maze of atleast \u00a0thirty other streets crisscrossing is absolutely fascinating. It\u2019s lined with Gothic houses, bakeries, antique stores , book shops , all retaining the glory of a past era.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As evening falls \u00a0Niederdorf\u00a0springs to life and transforms into an entertainment zone with plenty of eateries and other activities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

LINDENHOF\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

\"Lindenhof\"<\/p>\n

Lindenhof \u2013 a short excursion up a small hill on the left bank of the river takes you to a fabulous viewing plat-form, Lindenhof. From here you get sweeping views of the city below, structures, placid river and pencil thin steeples, .<\/a> Discover the most ancient portions of the old medieval town, \u00a0public square and slopy roads.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

RHINE FALLS\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Zurich is an ideal point for a trip to the Rhine falls. A superb network of Swiss Railways makes this possible within an hour. Travel through northern Switzerland\u2019s rolling wine country and meadows to reach the\u00a0Rhein \u00a0\u2013\u00a0the largest falls in\u00a0Europe .\u00a0The spectacular sight of the crashing waters and flying spray can be enjoyed from different observation points beginning from the top of the train station to the foot of the\u00a0falls .\u00a0For a closer experience, opt for an adventurous ferry trip through the forceful flows that takes tourists either to the rock in the middle of the falls or Worth castle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As in most of the cities of Europe so also Zurich has a culture that is open and amiable,\u00a0residents are cheery and prefer to\u00a0spend \u00a0time\u00a0outdoors .\u00a0Brimming pavement cafes indicate the love for food, friendships and parties.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

FONDUE – SWISS DELICACY<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

\"Fondue\"<\/p>\n

So, immersed were\u00a0we \u00a0in\u00a0taking trips to the\u00a0snow clad\u00a0mountains of the Swizz Alps that could barely find time to savour the local cuisine. Ultimately, just before leaving for home, had the lip-smacking delicacy `fondue\u2019 at one of the typical roadside cafes in Zurich. There\u2019s nothing more satisfying than enjoying a warm dish in chilly\u00a0weather.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For those who are unfamiliar with\u00a0this \u00a0culinary\u00a0specialty, fondue\u00a0consists of a melting pot of\u00a0delicious cheese, flavored with white wine and garlic, served on top of a lighted stove. Presented with bread pieces, which has to be dipped in the cheese with a long fork and eaten. This steaming hot dish is all that is required to elevate your\u00a0spirits in freezing conditions.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Though this country is well-known for\u00a0chocolates,\u00a0 cheese\u00a0and watches; Lindt brand of chocolates are from\u00a0Zurich,\u00a0 there\u2019s\u00a0a manufacturing\u00a0unit\u00a0here.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is ideal to make Zurich the last stop of your trip. Not only\u00a0 would you find it to be an easy-going place after hectic jaunts to lofty mountains and lakes. It also has the largest airport\u00a0 for departures to various countries.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span> Make your one day trip Zurich memorable by halting at the above mentioned sites !<\/span><\/p>\n
