Switzerland's largest city is no longer the boring capital of banking. It is a cosmopolitan city that combines a life full of excitement with nature. Today, the biggest street parties are held here. The first impression of a small, clean and orderly town with a church above the crystal surface of the lake is pleasant. Then you join the relaxed crowds on Niederdorfstrasse, and the hedonism of the city washes over you.
