Zurich, Switzerland^

Zurich

Zurich is not only Switzerland's business centre, it is also the world centre for gold trading and the seat of the fourth most important stock exchange in the world. The Old Town straddles the Limmat River, which runs through the city into the Lake of Zurich. Handsome guild houses and monumental churches punctuate the warren of cobbled streets. Its heart after dark is Niederdorfstraße with its lively beer halls and jazz pubs. Zurich is home to some of the best museums in the country. The Museum of Fine Arts is world-class, the Swiss National Museum houses a fine display of Swiss history, and the Asian collection of the Museum Rietberg is outstanding.
