Beyond
Beyond
its status as a bankers’ metropolis, Zurich offers modern
living against a lakeside setting. As Switzerland‘s
largest city, it serves as both a financial district and cultural
hub. It is, in fact, relatively small with an old and new town
boasting a variety of architecture, from traditional to design-led.
As the birthplace of Dadaism and the former home of an exiled
Lenin, Zurich hosts an array of unique history. With the mountains
just an hour away, it’s a perfect pit stop before your winter
ski trip or a
weekend getaway.
Being one of the wealthiest and most liveable cities of the 21st
century might not sound like a particularly sexy accolade, but a
younger generation have softened Zurich with a creative flourish,
taking the city far beyond big banks and punctual trains.
