eSIM for Zurich

Romanesque church and symbol of reformed Zurich, where reformer Zwingli was appointed in 1519. Climb the tower for panoramic views over the Limmat River - the ascent is steep but worth it.

Gothic church with stunning Marc Chagall stained glass windows. Part of a former convent. Photography is prohibited inside - a rare chance to truly experience art without documenting it.

Switzerland's largest art museum with a world-class collection including Giacometti sculptures and major international works. The building itself is an architectural highlight. Book ahead in summer.

Beautiful lakeside boardwalk stretching 3km from Bellevue to Tiefenbrunnen. In summer, join locals swimming at the public baths. The Burkliplatz area has boat departures for lake cruises.

One of the world's most famous shopping streets running from the Hauptbahnhof to the lake. Even window shopping is an experience - it's basically an outdoor gallery of luxury goods.

Hilltop in the old town with remnants of a Roman fort and beautiful views over the Limmat. A quiet escape from the shopping bustle. Popular with locals playing chess.

Old town district with cobblestone alleys, restaurants, and bars. The evening bar scene draws a young crowd. Best experienced after dark when the lighting is magical.

Swiss National Museum showcasing the history of Switzerland through excellent permanent exhibitions. The medieval armory section is unexpectedly fascinating. Free with a Swiss Pass.

Small Chinese garden gifted by Kunming as thanks for technical assistance. Open April through October daily. A peaceful pocket of calm near the lake - the dragon fountain is a favorite.

Outstanding art museum focused on non-European traditions from Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Oceania. The building and grounds are as impressive as the collection. Great for a rainy afternoon.
