Zürich
Zurich, the largest city in Switzerland, lies in the north-eastern part of the country on Lake Zurich, surrounded by the Albis mountains. It is a key economic and financial centre, known for the Zurich stock exchange. The city has a rich history reaching back to Roman times, when the customs post of Turicum stood here. The Lindenhof is worth a visit, with its historic guild houses. The temperate climate, with mild winters and warm summers, makes spring and summer the best time to come.
