Hi,

For the ones living in Zurich, what would you suggest to discover the region?

When you have friends or family visiting you, where do you go with them? What are the must-see places in Zurich, the tourist sites?

How to visit the region in an original way? Any unusual or unknown place to recommend?

What would you suggest for a couple of days of for a week of holidays in Zurich?

Thank you in advance for participating ;)

tout dépend des intérêts des visiteurs: culture, histoire ou faire du shopping?

voilà mes suggestions (comme personne qui travaille et qui vit à Zurich):
- la Bahnhofstrasse
- tour en bateau sur le lac.. et de la natation dans le lac
- la vieille ville avec Fraumünster
- les musées (Kunstmuseum)
- balade au bord du lac avec la jardin chinois
- en train sur la colline "Üetliberg"  ou une marche
- le zoo de Zurich
- streetparade

dans la région:
- faire une excursion à Einsiedeln (cloître)
- visiter la ville de Winterthur
- faire un petit voyage en montagnes (100 km: Säntis, Appenzell, Hochybrig etc.

Je vous souhaite un séjour agréable et intéressant
Pablo
