Zürich is the world’s best city to live in, with the highest quality of life, according to recent studies -- so it is also a perfect place to visit. While most people know its reputation as a modern banking center, you will be surprised to discover the historic charms of its extensive Old Town, among the largest in Switzerland, and the glamor of the modern shopping streets.

Visitors can take pleasure in this great lifestyle, enjoying friendly, efficient services while exploring many fascinating sights. With just under 400,000 people in the city proper, Zurich is an ideal place to stay -- especially when you consider the main visitor attraction, which is a beautiful Old Town of cobbled lanes lined with historic buildings and numerous fine shops and restaurants. It is delightful to wander in this large pedestrian zone that is filled with enchanting little alleys which lead through an ancient town that was founded during the Middle Ages. With the right strategies you can see this slightly expensive city without spending a fortune. It’s an easy city to cover on foot, which is always the best and cheapest way to see any historic town.

@Marcus..."Your town" without question is marvelous. But what I'd like to know is what developments does Zurich offer in medicine? For example, how goes it with advances in stopping the growth of cancer and other life threatening diseases? I have read Israeli medicine is on the verge of a breakthrough. But I'm not interested in that region of the world. What say you?

Zurich can be made a much cheaper city than many other European cities. Everything is so close and there are good supermarkets. The prices look high, but relative to income, its no worse than London or Paris. Its certainly not Poland cheap, but good enough for me. Remember, an expensive city is only expensive if one decides to spend there.

I don’t know how you can leave! It must be terribly hard to leave such beautiful and amazing places that you go to? I would be balling my eyes out and have to be dragged out of there kicking and screaming. It would be impossible to have to come back to my life after seeing the magical places you travel to. You’re very lucky and I’m very jealous of you. But at least I have the next best thing in your great and thoroughly informative videos. I really appreciate you making them for all of us who can’t make it there. Thank you

Small correction: The Zürich main station is called Zürich Hauptbahnhof or Zürich HB for short.
@denniscallan
@denniscallan 6 лет назад
Well, OK thanks, I call it the "train station" because I'm speaking English, but yes, you're correct. My other movie about Zürich focuses on the more modern downtown, in which I do mention Hauptbahnhof four times and bring you inside for an extended 5-minute tour of the station, 12 minutes into that movie: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ihbSoqS21g8.html

Greetings Dennis!!! We had a wonderful time in Zurich. We spent 3 days in the Old Town area in late October, 2021. Your video on Zurich, Part 1 & 2 Made our stay very enjoyable. We did just about everything on "the list" except for the city of Zug. Found all the hidden doors and more. FYI, getting around during and eating out at restaurants during Covid is Not an Issue. Keep your passport and Covid card handy. Most restaurants will check your stats, then will be glad to seat you. The service everywhere was Great! The Food was Delicious!!! Thanks again!! Clark C.
