🗓️Best time to visit
May–September; the perfect first or last stop.
📸Top activities & landmarks
- The lake and its short cruises
- Old town on both Limmat banks
- Bahnhofstrasse
- Uetliberg summit (20 min by train)
- Rhine Falls trip (1h)
🏨Where to stay
Around the Hauptbahnhof for practicality; prices rank among the world's highest — expect a small room at suite money.
⚠️Tips & warnings
One-two days fully suffice before heading to the mountains. Everything shuts Sundays, and an ordinary meal starts CHF 25–35 — Coop/Migros supermarkets are the real budget allies.
