Switzerland produces over 400kg of cow’s milk per capita per year – one of the highest values in Europe. But it’s more than the numbers – cows on alpine meadows, huge wheels of cheese and gnarly farmers are all part of the Swiss national myth. Even if most of the milk comes from modern farms in the lowlands. The Toni dairy factory in Zurich’s west used to process up to 1 million litres of milk a day. This concrete giant was given up long ago, but it wasn’t torn down and now it produces – art. It has recently been transformed into the city’s new University of the Arts, which also hosts many concerts and performances. Our feature on p. 14 has more. If you do want to try some of those dairy products, a very seasonal way of enjoying Swiss cheese is melted – as raclette or fondue. Either at a restaurant (p. 26) or combined with another winter activity. The city’s Christmas markets (p. 16) always have a stand which sells raclette and ice skating and fondue is a combination which has also caught on (p. 17, 47). But it’s not only cheese lovers we cater for. For this issue we also tested the burgers at the Holy Cow (p. 30), Roman cuisine (p. 25) and some oriental mezzes (p. 28). They taste good without even a drop of milk.

Swiss Casinos ZГјrich is open every day from 11:00 am to 4:00 am, and until 5:00 am on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Haus Ober, Gessnerallee 3 – 5, 8001 Zurich www.swisscasinos.ch Take the tram to Stauffacher or Sihlstrasse, or the SZU train to Selnau Arriving & Getting Around ARRIVING BY PLANE Zurich International Airport (ZRH) lies 13 kilometres north of the city centre in Kloten and handles around 700 flights a day going to over 170 destinations worldwide. You can п¬Ѓnd ATMs and switzerlandinfo desks at Arrival 1 and Arrival 2 just after you pass customs. There you can п¬Ѓnd free copies of Zurich In Your Pocket. There is a big public shopping area with most shops open from 08:00 - 21:00 (groceries from 06:00 - 23:00) and a free Wi-п¬Ѓ for the п¬Ѓrst 60 minutes, just connect your device to ’ZurichAirport’. To get to town: The easiest and fastest way to get to and from the airport is by train. Take one of the fast trains or slower S-trains leaving from the underground train station near terminals 1 and 2 - if the sign on the platform reads ZГјrich HB (HB = Hauptbahnhof = main station), it’s the right train. Up to ten trains leave an hour and the journey takes roughly ten minutes. Tickets can be bought at the counters or at the ticket machines (switch them to English on the п¬Ѓrst screen) next to the stairs leading down to the platforms. A ticket for an adult is 6.60Sfr and valid for one hour in the whole city (3 zones). If you plan to do more travelling by public transport, make it a 24-hour ticket for just twice the price or consider buying a ZГјrichCARD (see p. 40). The view down Bahnhofstrasse to the main train station вЂ�HB’. Matthias Villiger A taxi ride to central Zurich costs around 60Sfr. Oп¬ѓcial taxi stands are just outside Arrivals 1 and 2. Tram NВ°10 takes you from the airport via Oerlikon to Zurich main station as well. The journey takes 37 minutes, same tickets as for the trains are valid. Good option if your hotel is in Zurich Nord. ARRIVING BY TRAIN Zurich’s main train station, referred to by locals as HB (short for Hauptbahnhof, say haa-bay), is right in the centre of the city. All international and domestic trains leave and arrive here. From the platforms just follow the herd towards the main hall, where you will п¬Ѓnd ticket oп¬ѓces and the tourist information. Trams, buses and taxis leave just outside the station. At the ticket oп¬ѓce in the main hall you can buy train tickets (also available at the many ticket machines), tickets 6 Zurich In Your Pocket Arriving & Getting Around for public transport in Zurich and also change money. For time tables and tickets refer to www.sbb.ch or call +41 900 300 300 (1.19Sfr/min). ARRIVING BY BUS Buses from other European countries arrive at the bus station (Bus Terminal Sihlquai, E-1), two minutes walk north from the main train station. The connections are run by private companies, most connections are to Eastern and Southern Europe. The bus station itself oп¬Ђers very few facilities but you can buy some tickets here. Zurich sightseeing buses start here as well. ARRIVING BY CAR The Swiss highways A1, A2, A3 and A4 lead from all directions to Zurich and if you follow the signs to Zurich City the city centre is quite easy to reach. But parking is scarce and very expensive. For overnight parking you can try to п¬Ѓnd a slot in the so-called blue zone in residential areas - parking there is free from 19:00 - 08:00, indicate your arrival time on your parking disk. Driving in Switzerland is generally easy. If you’re using the motorways you have to buy a vignette for 40Sfr (available at petrol stations and post oп¬ѓces). Remember that trams always have right of way, as well as pedestrians on zebracrossings without traп¬ѓc lights. The legal alcohol limit for drivers is 0.05%, which should allow you to have roughly one glass of beer before driving. The standard speed limit is 50km/h in urban areas, 80km/h outside towns and 120km/h on motorways. In residential zones in Zurich, the speed limit is often 30km/h. Fines are high and yes, Switzerland has agreements with many European countries to make sure you pay the п¬Ѓne even if you have a foreign number plate. You may use your home driving license in Switzerland as long as it is valid - if the license is a non EU-one and in a language other than French, English, Italian or German it is recommended that it be accompanied by an international one. PUBLIC TRANSPORT Trains The train network is fast, reliable and extensive. For getting around in Switzerland, trains are deп¬Ѓnitely best - from Zurich there are connections to all the major Swiss cities once or twice an hour. The state owned train company is called SBB. For time tables refer to www.sbb.ch. Tickets are sold on vending machines (switch them to English on the п¬Ѓrst screen) and at the counters in the main hall at Zurich main train station. You can purchase single and return tickets. Children up to 5 travel for free, from 6 - 16 years they pay the half-fare. If you plan on travelling around Switzerland a lot, get a half-fare card for one month for 120Sfr - and travel for half the fare on all public transport. If you board a train without a valid ticket, you will have to pay a п¬Ѓne of 90Sfr. zurich.inyourpocket.com City transport Zurich’s public transport network includes trams, buses, local trains and ships on the lake and on the river. The ticket system is fairly simple: Zurich’s cantonal network is divided into zones. So you don’t buy tickets for a trip, but rather for a zone. The network of the city of Zurich is one zone, zone number 110 (see map page 74). Tickets are valid in the chosen zones on all kinds of transport. For getting around the city (zone 110) a day pass valid for 24 hours will cost you 8.60Sfr, a single ticket valid for 1 hour 4.30Sfr. Children up to 5 travel for free, 6 - 16 year-olds pay the socalled half-fare (which actually is 3Sfr). These tickets can be purchased at the ticket machines you п¬Ѓnd at almost every stop (most of them now take credit cards). Be aware that Uetliberg and the airport are not within zone 110. If you get caught without a valid ticket, it’s 90Sfr. For all questions about public transport, get advice at VBZ Ticketerias, situated at larger tram stops throughout the city. Another option is the ZГјrichCARD (24Sfr/24hrs, 48Sfr/72hrs), which is valid for zone 110 and between the airport and the city, as well as giving you free entry to many museums. The Zurich card is available at most ticket machines, VBZ Ticketerias and at the Tourist Information. See p. 40 for more infromation. Public transport in Zurich runs roughly from 05:00 - 00:30. There are night buses in the nights Fri/Sat and Sat/Sun to all parts of the town. Most of them start at Bellevue and pass by Central and Escher-Wyss Platz. They require a 5Sfr supplement to any valid ticket. Send a text message from your mobile with the word ’NZ’ to 988 to purchase the supplement by phone. You’ll be glad it’s on a leash when you walk across Bahnhofplatz. Zurich Tourism ZГњRI ROLLT - BIKES FOR FREE Bikes to borrow for free - all you need is identiп¬Ѓcation and 20Sfr as a deposit.

It’s usually easy to get one, even in rush hours. The city sets the following maximum prices for taxis (and all companies we know charge the maximum): initial fee 6Sfr, 3.80Sfr per kilometre, 69Sfr per hour. Taxi drivers have to and usually do use their metres. You’ll п¬Ѓnd taxis at oп¬ѓcial taxi stands. You can hail them from the streets as well. The ridesharing service Uber also operates in Zurich. You can order their drivers over an app on your smartphone. Fares usually are signiп¬Ѓcantly cheaper than standard taxi fares (base fare 3-6Sfr, 0.300.50Sfr per minute, 1.35-3.40Sfr per kilometre).

The standard sizes for beer are the 0.3 litre Stange (pronounce: shtang-eh) and the 0.5 litre Grosses (gro-sus). The long-standing medium-scale brewers are increasingly getting competition from innovative local brewers. Check out Sprint, Paul or Appenzeller for instance. Swiss wines are also not to be underestimated. While the best may come from further south, you’ll п¬Ѓnd some very good Blauburgunders (red) and Riesling Sylvaners (white) from the Zurich region. Traditional Swiss spirits are fruit brandies, cherry (Kirsch) and pear (Williams) being the most common. Area Switzerland: 41285 sq km Zurich (Canton): 1729 sq km Zurich (City): 92 sq km Population Switzerland: 8 million Zurich (city): 390,000 Oп¬ѓcial languages Switzerland: German, French, Italian, Romansh Zurich: German ELECTRICITY Local time Central European (GMT+1h) CUSTOMS Switzerland is not member of the European customs union. On the one hand that gives you the opportunity to buy real tax-free goods at airports when you are travelling from and to Switzerland. On the other hand there are tight restrictions on the goods you can take free of customs duty from Switzerland to your country. For EU-countries the following customs and tax allowances apply (for other countries check with the according customs authorities): Electricity in Switzerland is 230 V, 50 Hz AC. Plug sockets are round and take three round pins - they can take Europlugs with two pins. If you are coming from the US, UK or Ireland you deп¬Ѓnitely need an adaptor - as well as from many other countries. HEALTH & EMERGENCY Emergency telephone numbers (operators usually speak basic English): Ambulance: 144 Police: 117 Firebrigade: 118 If you need medical attention, there are several walk-in medical centres, like Permanence at the main railway station (facing Bahnhofstrasse), where you just pull a ticket and wait your turn (+41 44 215 44 44, Bahnhofplatz 15, open 07:00 22:00), Notfall ZГјrich 3 (+41 43 811 81 18, Zypressenstrasse 39, open 08:00 - 19:00, Sat 10:00 - 14:00, closed Sun) or mediX (+41 44 298 50 50, Badenerstrasse 41, open 07:00 - 21:00, Sun 08:00 - 18:00). Zurich also has three public hospitals with emergency units which are open 24 hours a day for urgent matters. You can just walk in, but expect to wait: USEFUL ZURICH APPS A view across Zurich to Uetliberg and the Albis mountains.

It also tells you where the nearest stop is, and how to get from A to B. And it’s available in English. If you install the free app of the Swiss Federal Railways SBB Mobile, you can buy tickets as well. (App store and android market) ZГјriPlan is a free app by the city of Zurich, oп¬Ђering a very exact map of Zurich with an integrated route planner for pedestrians and cyclists. The app is in German, but quite self-explanatory. On the downside, not all the maps are stored on your phone. But the parts of the maps which have been used are saved for one week. (App Store only) zurich.inyourpocket.com LANGUAGE SMARTS SMART PHONING Here are some typical Swiss German words - it will be always appreciated if you use a few Swiss words. The вЂ�rвЂ� in Swiss German is rolled, the вЂ�ch’ is pronounced like in the Scottish loch. Mind your throat. If you want to use your smartphone in Switzerland, you might consider buying a local prepaid card. This way your phone will be able to guide you through the city without clocking up sky-high roaming costs. As an extra plus, the In Your Pocket mobile website (m.inyourpocket.com) will work perfectly too. A prepaid card is only an option if your phone is not sim-locked. You’ll need an ID to get a card, which itself usually costs around 20Sfr. Here we list some of the prepaid cards, their prices and where to get them. Some companies oп¬Ђer cheap data, others cheap calls abroad. Choose what suits you better (rates are in Sfr per minute, as of September 2014).

INTERNET / WI-FI In the era of laptops and smartphones internet cafГ©s are not as necessary as they were. What you really need are hotspots. Many cafГ©s and bars in Zurich have free Wi-п¬Ѓ for their customers. You will also п¬Ѓnd the commercial Wi-п¬Ѓ providers Monzoon and Swisscom all over the city (accessible with a credit card). Another possibility to stay connected with your smartphone during your stay in Switzerland is to buy a prepaid sim card for your phone. LANGUAGE Switzerland has four oп¬ѓcial languages: German (spoken by 64%), French (20%), Italian (6.5%) and Romansh (0.5%). Zurich lies in the German speaking part of the country, where people speak a German dialect, so called Swiss German or SchwyzerdГјtsch. Be it among friends, at work or when dealing with the authorities, people speak dialect. However, Swiss people use standard German, so-called Hochdeutsch, when writing and speaking at school. facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket domestic calls dataВ В В В В В В В В where to buy calls abroad* OK.- mobileВ В В 0.22В В В В В В В В 0.29/0.32В В В В В В 7Sfr/300MB**В В В В В В k kiosks shops / Yallo В В В В В В В В В 0.35В В В В В В 0.15 В В В В В В 5Sfr/150MB**В В В В В В migros post oп¬ѓces m-budget 0.28В В В В В В 0.28В В В В В В 4.80/150 MB** migros mobile Lebara coop, 0.25 0.19В В В В В В 4.90/120MB** migros, simply post oп¬ѓces 0.30; max 0.6 sunrise freeВ В В В В В 1Sfr per dayВ В В В В В sunrise shopsВ 0.9 per call company *to most European countries incl.

Well then it’s high tide..eh..high time! You don’t believe us, do you? Just go along to Limmatquai, next to CafГ© Rathaus. The п¬Ѓrst thing you’ll sea..eh.. see is a huge, rusty dockside crane. Didn’t we tell you? But we must admit, Zurich’s maritime AndrГ©s HГ¶chli connection is only temporary. The rusty hulk will be here until 2015. But it has caused a lot of excitement. The city parliament and local radios and newspapers were flooded with debate on this art installation. The organizers wanted the crane to pop-up unexpectedly, stir up Zurich and disappear again. But there was a conservative uproar over the city spending 600,000Sfr for an old crane, and every detail was fought over. So by the time the crane or Hafenkran appeared this April – all 90 tonnes of it, towering 30 metres tall – it couldn’t surprise anyone. But who cares. Now you can smell the ocean breeze and dream of the seven seas in the heart of Zurich. And you might also hear a huge ship’s horn from somewhere. It’s part of the installation too.Qwww.zurich-transit-maritim.ch.

ENGE & WOLLISHOFEN (2) SAFETY Zurich is a safe city, and in fact there is no no-go area, even for women at night. Be on guard against pickpockets just as in any European city. SMOKING The legal age for smoking is 16. Smoking in public buildings and transport is illegal. However, restaurants and bars are allowed to have a separate smoking room (fumoir). Dialling Switzerland’s calling code is +41. Zurich’s code is (0)44 or (0)43. We list the country code before all telephone numbers. Of course you only have to use this if you are dialling from abroad. If you are already in Switzerland, just ignore the +41 preп¬Ѓx, dial 0 and then the nine-digit number. MONEY RELIGION The Swiss are traditionally either Roman Catholic (42%) or Protestant (35%). The largest (and quite new) minority religious community are Muslims (4%). Zurich is traditionally Protestant, due to the ardent reformator Zwingli who put an end to partying here in the 16th century. But his grip has loosened somewhat in recent decades. 10 Zurich In Your Pocket The City of Zurich oп¬ѓcially has 12 urban districts, called Stadtkreise. They are simply numbered from 1 to 12. However these urban districts are mostly for administrative purposes - we introduce the areas visitors to Zurich should know by the names they are usually known by. The numbers in brackets show roughly which oп¬ѓcial districts they include. NIEDERDORF (1) SIHLPOST ZurichвЂ�s central post oп¬ѓce, open until late. Take a ticket and wait for your turn.

The currency and legal tender of Switzerland is the Swiss franc (Sfr), which is divided in 100 rappen. There are banknotes of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 1000 francs. The coins in use are 1,2 and 5 francs as well as 5, 10, 20 and 50 rappen. You can change your money at the SBB change at the main railway station or any of the banks. Or just withdraw Swiss francs with your Maestro or your Plus card from one of the ubiquitous ATM’s. Credit cards are widely accepted - both in shops and restaurants. Service is always included. At a restaurant however, if you were happy with the service, leave 5-10% of the bill as a tip. Seefeld is the name of the district on the eastern shore of the lake. Over the past decade it has become an incredibly popular area to live in - which results in very high rents. There are worries that this is driving away the area’s original inhabitants and spoiling its charm. With all the new residents, scores of trendy bars and restaurants have opened in Seefeld. But of course the major attraction here is the lake: on the lake side there is a promenade with boat rentals, two swimming spots and the ever (over-)crowded Blatterwiese. Limmatquai caught in a golden moment. www.juanrubiano.com TOURIST INFORMATION Zurich Tourism’s newly renovated Tourist service is located in the main hall of the main train station.

VISAS For a stay of up to three months, many foreigners simply need a passport or an ID card to enter Switzerland. Even though not a member of the European Union, Switzerland is a member of the Schengen Agreement. As a result a Schengen visa is valid for Switzerland as well. Always check these details with a Swiss embassy or consulate. zurich.inyourpocket.com Niederdorf (the lower village) is the part of the old town on the eastern bank of the river Limmat between the squares Central and Bellevue. It’s teeming with restaurants, bars and, spiteful tongues say, undiscerning visitors from neighbouring canton Argovia (Argovians have to take a bit of flak in Zurich). There is also a sprinkling of adult entertainment, especially in and around HГ¤rringstrasse sex workers of both sexes look for suitors. Most of Niederdorf is a pedestrian area. It’s criss-crossed with mediaeval alleys and small squares and a walk through Niederdorf should be part of every visit to Zurich. Especially if you leave very busy Niederdorfstrasse up hill towards Oberdorf you will discover some lovely spots you wouldn’t have expected. Along the river on the Limmatquai cafГ©s with outdoor seating are a good excuse to have a drink and watch Zurich go by. CITY/LINDENHOF (1) On the western bank of the river Limmat lies the Lindenhof quarter, the other part of the old town. Right in its centre, on a small hill, Lindenhofplatz gives you excellent views over Niederdorf. Zurich’s citizens held their meetings here in mediaeval times. The alleys and streets near here abound with shops of all kinds and some restaurants and bars. Towards the west, Bahnhofstrasse - one of the world’s most famous shopping streets - marks the border of the Lindenhof district, and on the other side, the so-called City includes Paradeplatz and the п¬Ѓnancial and business district, spreading out towards the lake. facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket The western shore of Lake Zurich is a bit less popular, but that’s exactly why it’s worth a visit. When the Seefeld side is overcrowded on a sunny summer weekend, you might п¬Ѓnd it more relaxing on this side. For example swimming at Mythenquai, or on Landiwiese, right on the shore. Enge district houses the two gardens Belvoirpark and Rieterpark as well. LANGSTRASSE (4 & 5) Langstrasse (long street) is a street connecting districts 4 and 5 through a tunnel underneath the ocean of railway tracks which divide the western part of the city. It was once the best-known red light district in Switzerland. But in the last decade much has changed: more and more striptease and night clubs have changed into urban bars now very popular with Zurich’s young crowd. You will still п¬Ѓnd strip clubs, drugs and a few alcoholics - but some of the most interesting bars, restaurants and clubs in the city as well (see the nightlife chapter). As a result it’s Zurich’s most cosmopolitan and multi-cultural district, perfect for bar-hopping and with options for partying almost around the clock. ZГњRICH WEST (5) Probably Zurich’s fastest developing district, this formerly industrial part of the city is rapidly changing into a new business and residential area. Oп¬ѓce space and residential developments have sprouted everywhere, making construction sites a long-term feature. The area around Escher-Wyss-Platz has also become one of the city’s entertainment districts with bars, restaurants and clubs popping up like mushrooms over the last 15 years. The п¬Ѓrst clubs set up in abandoned industrial buildings, but now many have moved into newly built or renovated locations. Some clubs still have a raw, provisional feel, while the restaurants and bars around the large Abaton multiplex cinema have a more mainstream character. ZГњRICH NORD - OERLIKON (11) The urban district 11 in the north of Zurich, behind the two hills KГ¤ferberg and ZГјrichberg is often referred to as Zurich Nord. Close to the airport, Oerlikon is home to numerous companies, and to Zurich’s biggest event hall Hallenstadion and the trade fair grounds. Lots of housing, oп¬ѓces, parks and hotels have been built here in the past п¬Ѓve years. December 2014 - January 2015 11 XVI Century Huldrych Zwingli, priest at the GrossmГјnster, was a major critic of mercenary service. But he had a lot more to say and became the initiator of the Reformation in Zurich from 1520 on. The Reformation meant an end to all frivolous behaviour - drinking, prostitution and actually most fun was forbidden or strictly regulated. Eat Drink Do Local Quick picks Mezze, mutabbal and other middleeastern dishes are very popular with locals, and the trendy Bebek (p. 28) is a worthy contender for local number-one mezze medalist. Located in the exciting urban development Kalkbreite, this is essential Zurich. Have a glass of GlГјhwein as Zurchers do at one of the many Christmas markets (p. 16). This hot wine prepared with sugar, cinnamon, cloves, lemon zest and other spices will keep you warm on your market wanderings, even if a cold December wind is blowing. When the temperatures drop, ice skating is a popular pastime in Zurich. The skating rink at the Dolder sports centre (p. 47) high above the city is a great choice or head out to KГјsnacht for skating on the lake shore (p. 17). If it gets cold enough, small lakes are opened for skating. On the cheap History Of course you can head for the burger multinationals – but п¬Ѓrst give the Holy Cow (p. 30) a try. With the meal deal you can get a burger meal here for as little as 16 Sfr. The choice of burgers is much more exciting, and they even serve them to your table. The somewhat racy Edi's Weinstube Two of Zurich's major (p. 34) – with a new exhibition of landmarks are free to explicit art every month – is the ideal visit: the mediaeval spot for having a few glasses of wine churches GrossmГјnwithout breaking the bank. A glass ster and FraumГјnstarts oп¬Ђ at 3 Sfr. You can also buy ster (p. 38). Both have magniп¬Ѓcent any bottle to take away for 7.90 Sfr. stained glass windows, elegant Now that's a bargain. Gothic arches and grim little faces looking down from the masonry. The Rheinfelder Bierhalle (p. 31) in Niederdorf is a massive place for massive portions - especially for meat. Whether it's kidney, liver, cordon bleu or schnitzel, meat comes in all shapes and sizes here. And there's no lack of beer to wash it all down. Tired of the arty and polished? The heavy-metal bar KON-tiki (p. 34) is dark, rough and ready. Take a seat at the bar, ask for a chlГ¶pfte and watch the barman (or woman) slam down a п¬Ѓzzy drink in a shot glass. Down it while it's frothing and don’t forget to order another one. Snow! Nothing like it for a bit of fast-moving fun! If it has snowed, head for Uetliberg by train. There's a sledge run from the top station, sledges can be rented there (good shoes and caution recommended). Otherwise get out at Ringlikon and just use a plastic bag to whoop your way down the short run there. The unusual location in the beautiful industrial-age mill, the impeccable service and the great attention to detail make the Blaue Ente (p. 23) one of our favourites for an evening for two. Just you and me, babe. The Corazon (p. 33) is the perfect place for an afternoon glass of wine with tapas, at the heart of Niederdorf, but away from the main tourist routes. And if you stay into the evening you'll п¬Ѓnd it turns into a lively bar. The Thermalbad & Spa Zurich (p. 46) in the former brewery is impressive – but when it gets busy it isn’t as relaxing as it could be. You can escape the bustle by ordering the Toi et Moi package, 90 minutes for two in a private bath, including a glass of prosecco and massages. Italian, naturally, does not always mean cheap and cheerful. Ristorante Bindella (p. 25) is dedicated to Venetian cuisine and combines red leather, polished wood and delicate stucco with outstanding cooking, a wine list to dream of and a good dose of italianitГ . If you're a regular visitor to Switzerland, you know. But if you're here for the п¬Ѓrst time, the more unusual Swiss variations on cheese dishes may come as a surprise. Winter is the best time to check out fondue and co., just see our box Cheese restaurants (p. 26). A porn cinema only ten years ago, the Razzia (p. 34) has recently been totally transformed. The original 1920s dГ©cor has been reawakened and complemented with an exquisite interior in delicate leathers, browns and beiges. And then there's the wine list – all 15 pages of it! At п¬Ѓrst sight the Oepfelchammer (p. 35) just seems a nice place for a glass of wine - as it has been for several centuries. But some of the customs here are a touch strange. You may be encouraged to heave yourself up on one of the beams and drink a glass of wine hanging upside down. There's a prize! Are you looking for a watch which is out of the ordinary? Could you spend days poring over mainsprings, movements, grand complications, all the fascinating mechanisms which count the seconds? Well, in Zurich you can. Let our Watches chapter (p. 55) be your guide. So where is Zurich's new University of the Arts located? That's right – in a huge dairy factory. Ok, it's a former dairy factory, this concrete hulk known as Toni Areal. With all these art students here, public auditions, jazz jam sessions, classical concerts, exhibitions etc. pop up all the time – read our special on p. 15 and go see for yourself. NAPOLEON CAUSES A BOTHER XVI - XVIII Century During the 16th and 17th Centuries Zurich’s wealth and influence increased. Among the intellectuals of the time were the educational reformer Heinrich Pestalozzi or the painter Johann Heinrich FГјssli, whose work you’ll п¬Ѓnd today in the Kunsthaus. In 1798 Zurich lost its independence as Napoleon took over, transforming the Swiss Confederacy into the Helvetic Republic for a brief п¬Ѓve years. ZURICH IN WOMEN’S HANDS THE RГ‰DUIT AND THE WAR XII - XIV Century In the 13th Century Zurich became an imperial city, answering only to the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. Zurich was now headed by a woman the abbess of the FraumГјnster abbey. In 1336 an uprising of Zurich’s craftsmen made the newly founded guilds the foundation of Zurich’s political structure. Many of the guild houses, still in use today, are now also restaurants like the Zunfthaus Zur Schmiden or the Zunfthaus am Neumarkt (emblem of the guild of the shoemakers on the left). XX Century During most of the Second World War Switzerland, formally neutral, was totally surrounded by the Axis powers, making it diп¬ѓcult to import food and other goods. General Guisan prepared for a military attack by literally hollowing out the Alps, envisaging a guerrilla war from the mountains, the socalled rГ©duit strategy. ZURICH GOES SWISS… AND PROTESTANT XIV - XVI Century In 1351 Zurich joined ’Switzerland’, which had existed as a treaty since 1291. This however didn’t stop the city waging war against fellow cantons, such as against Schwyz. Soon the city ruled over lands around Lake Zurich and north all the way to the river Rhine. 12 Zurich In Your Pocket Couples 100BC - X Century Around 15 BC the Romans established a military base at the site of today’s Lindenhof where you can п¬Ѓnd a copy of the Roman tomb stone mentioning Turicum, the word from which Zurich derives. Roman rule ended around 400 AD and nobody really has any idea what went on in Zurich for the next few centuries. One change was the arrival of the Germanic tribe of the Allemanni, who brought with them the language that was to become today’s Swiss German (SchwyzerdГјГјtsch). XIX - XX Century Modern-day Switzerland was founded in 1848 as a federation. The year before, the п¬Ѓrst railway line in Switzerland was opened. Railways were the business Alfred Escher was in. He dominated Zurich and Swiss politics for the next few decades. His statue can be found just in front of the main train station. Switzerland remained neutral during the First World War and was refuge to the artists who started the Dada movement in Zurich. The war exacerbated the poverty of the working classes and in 1918 a socialist committee called a general strike. Many of the committee’s demands were later fulп¬Ѓlled, though not the demand for the right of women to vote, which was not introduced until 1971! ROMANS AND SCHWYZERDГњГњTSCH Lads & Lasses RAILWAYS AND A STRIKE Highend ZIYP ZURICH TODAY XX - XXI Century After the war Switzerland’s economy boomed and mass immigration from Southern Europe set in, while culturally and politically Switzerland remained very conservative. In 1968 and 1980 youth movements clashed with police, but also brought new cultural life to Zurich. Today Zurich is still a major п¬Ѓnancial centre and has lost the conservative reputation. It has become popular as a place to live for highlyskilled workers from across Europe. This has made the lack of aп¬Ђordable apartments one of the major topics in Zurich today. zurich.inyourpocket.com Unexpected Zurich’s somewhat grim reformator Huldrych Zwingli. facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket December 2014 - January 2015 13 A gigantic factory of the Arts The yoghurts in the little brown-glass jars are a childhood memory for anybody who grew up in or around Zurich before the 1990s – and the huge dairy factory on the Toni Areal is where they came from. The last milk bottles and yoghurts have long since left this massive structure but since this autumn the Toni Areal is producing something new: art. The ZHdK, the Zurich University of the Arts, has made this concrete hulk its new home. On any week day the immense Toni Areal is a buzzing beehive of activity, the oversized entrance ramp busy with art students coming, going or lingering for a chat and a cigarette. Inside, in the countless cells of this complex their co-students are working on anything from Baroque organ music to electronic п¬Ѓlm editing, from sound design to classical ballet. The immense Toni Areal is a buzzing beehive of artistic activity. Hemmed in between two major roads and a railway viaduct in the post-industrial west of Zurich, the Toni Areal was best known in recent years for the techno clubs that used its large spaces. The architects from EM2N have now reinvented the building, giving it a new skin and creating 1400 (yes!) rooms including three concert halls, two chamber music halls, auditoriums, a cinema, cafГ©s, workshops, sound studios and other specialised work places. On the seventh floor they placed a huge roof terrace which has great views over the city – this sunny spot is also where the ZHdK’s own nursery is located. The bare concrete, steel girders and neon strip lights used throughout retain the industrial feel of the building, but within this frame the architects have given certain rooms a totally diп¬Ђerent, quite luxuriant п¬Ѓnish. The various rooms are like buildings in a vertical city, connected by corridors and the magniп¬Ѓcent central flight of stairs as streets. The ttoower Th The wering ingg olld dair airyy fact fact actory o y wi ory with th its neew skinn iiss noow home home to Zu Zuric rich’s ric hs Un h’s Unive iversi ive rsiityy off the t Ar Arts. ts. | ZHd ZHdKK Make art, not yoghurt! THE FORMER TONI DAIRY FACTORY IS THE NEW UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS Moving into this city-in-the-city was quite an organisational feat. School departments from 39 diп¬Ђerent locations in the whole region and two departments of the University of Applied Sciences relocated to the Toni Areal, moving 2900 tonnes of material. The Museum of Design which also opened its new spaces here п¬Ѓts in very well. Dedicated to Swiss design as it is, you might even п¬Ѓnd the little brown-glass yoghurt jars in its collection. Major new schools are ideally more than just buildings – they are visions. Take the central buildings of the ETH and the University which are visible from all over the city, perched above the Niederdorf district (see map F-2/3). They have symbolised Zurich’s dedication to higher learning and science since they were built in the early 20th century. Today, the ZHdK with its masses of artistic talent and ambition is sure to transform the whole post-industrial district surrounding it – rather like the ferment used to turn bland milk into yoghurt here, years ago. Chris Young facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket WHAT TO VISIT On concert nights you can view the almost spooky neo-Gothic ZHdK concert hall 2 with its organ. The Toni Areal isn’t only for students – events and permanent institutions are open to everybody. The campus is about ten minutes walk from HardbrГјcke train station, but you can also hop on tram NВ°4 (direction Bahnhof Altstetten from the centre) and get oп¬Ђ at the stop Toni Areal. The ZhdK organises over 1000 events a year like concerts, lectures, guided tours or work-in-progress presentations by their students in dance, music, п¬Ѓlm, visual arts etc. You’ll п¬Ѓnd all upcoming events on their homepage www.zhdk.ch under events. Unfortunately, the programme is only in German so far. The important entry is Veranstaltungsort, i.e. venue: the events are not all at the Toni Areal, so do check! If you just have a look around the Toni Areal by day you’ll see the programme of the current month’s events on noticeboards – and you can ask at the info desk. MUSEUM FГњR GESTALTUNG пљє SCHAUDEPOT At its new location here, the Museum of Design shows exhibitions year round. For more details see p. 41 & 19. MUSIKKLUB MEHRSPUR This live-music club started oп¬Ђ as a low-key venue for the jazz school students to show oп¬Ђ their skills. Now they have a programme packed full of successful acts, but Wednesday is still jam night and still worth dropping in. For more details see p. 36. BISTRO CHEZ TONI Just across from the tram stop of line NВ°4, this bistro is where to go if you want a little more service than at the university cantine. In a quite simple interior with some 1970s touches Toni serves coп¬Ђee, cakes and croissants in the morning and a choice of two mains at lunch (15.50Sfr). As they close early, the evening is dedicated to antipasti and a surprisingly good choice of wines.QPfingstweidstrasse 96, tel + 41 43 446 48 12. Open 08:00 - 20:30, Sat 09:00 - 15:00, closed Sun. December 2014 - January 2015 15 Christmas Christmas In recent years Christmas markets have popped up all over the city of Zurich. They don’t have a tradition going back centuries like in Germany, but nevertheless some of them have charm and atmosphere. All of them are outdoors - except the big Christkindlimarkt in the hall of the main train station. You’ll п¬Ѓnd a range of items from coloured scarves to wood carvings, sweet delicacies and bits and pieces from around the world. At all the markets you can get glГјhwein, hot mulled red wine that keeps you warm even if a cold December wind is blowing. And of course there are food stands oп¬Ђering raclette, melted cheese on bread, and other delights. Check our listings below and glГјhwein your way around them all. The Bahnhofstrasse, the city’s main shopping street, got a new set of Christmas lights in 2010. The new lights feature more than 150,000 diodes, most of them white, but with a sprinkling of coloured ones, so you feel like you’re standing under a starry sky. MARKETS CHRISTKINDLI MARKT They say it’s one of Europe’s biggest indoor Christmas markets with a 15-metre tall Christmas tree decorated with hundreds of crystals as its main attraction (see photo on the cover of this guide). And surely at least one of the more than 150 stands has the Christmas present you’re looking for! There is a merry-go-round to keep the children happy, and glГјhwein for the parents.QE-2, Main train station (main hall), 8Hauptbahnhof, www.christkindlimarkt.ch. Open until Dec 24, 11:00 - 21:00, Thu - Sat 11:00 - 22:00. Well, that’s what Christmas trees do, isn’t it? Zurich Tourism (CM) SINGING CHRISTMAS TREE This small market is situated just a few steps from Bahnhofstrasse. The real attraction here is the singing Christmas tree: every day at 17:30 and 18:30 (Sat & Sun also at 14:30 and 15:30) choirs sing carols - on a vertical stage that looks like a Christmas tree. With their red hats on, the singers are the decorations on the tree. Singing Christmas baubles - we’ve never seen anything quite like it. And yes, there is gГјhwein and fondue too.QE-3, WerdmГјhleplatz, 8Bahnhofstrasse / Hauptbahnhof, www.singingchristmastree.ch. Open until Dec 23, 16:00 -21:00, Sat & Sun 13:00 - 21:00. 16 Zurich In Your Pocket WEIHNACHTSMARKT EUROPAALLE This is the youngest of the city’s Christmas markets, taking place for the second time this year. It’s located in the newly developed shopping and residential area Europaallee, just southwest of the tracks of the main train station. Around 50 little Christmas cabins will be installed and taken over by traders and craftsmen oп¬Ђering all kinds of more or less useful stuп¬Ђ for Christmas. There is a fondue hut (www.pizeuropa.com) so your stomach can also get in a Christmas mood.QD-2, Europaallee, 8Hauptbahnhof, www.weihnachtsmarkt-europaallee.ch. Open until Dec 24, 11:00 - 19:00, Sat 11:00 - 18:00, Sun closed except Nov 30 & Dec 21. NEW YEAR’S EVE Night-time ice skating at Live on Ice in KГјsnacht. WEIHNACHTSMARKT IM DГ–RFLI The Christmas or Weihnacht market in Niederdorf, the part of the old town east of the river Limmat, is the oldest one in Zurich. Dozens of stands bring a Christmas atmosphere to the alleys and squares around Niederdorfstrasse. Many crafts people sell their products here. Stroll through this one to combine Christmas shopping with some sightseeing. QF-3, Niederdorf, 8Rudolf-Brun-BrГјcke, www.gld.ch. Open until Dec 23, 11:00 - 20:00, Sun 11:00 - 18:00, closed Sun Dec 14. SHOWS & ACTIVITIES CANDLE MAKING (KERZENZIEHEN) Make your own candle by dipping a wick into tubs of hot, molten wax in a pavilion on BГјrkliplatz. All you need is a bit of patience, as the wax needs to cool before you dip it again. Good to slow down for a while in the frantic pre-Christmas period and good with kids. You pay according to the weight of the candle when it’s п¬Ѓnished, proceeds go to charity.QE-5, BГјrkliplatz, 8BГјrkliplatz, www.zuercherkerzenziehen.ch. Open until Dec 22, 10:00 - 20:00. CHRISTMAS PYRAMID (WEIHNACHTSPYRAMIDE) The 8-metre high wooden Christmas pyramid at the Stadelhofen train station is a charming place for a stop during your Christmas shopping tour. Get a glГјhwein, a glass of white wine or a portion of melted cheese called raclette and enjoy the festively lit atmosphere.QF-5, Stadelhoferplatz, 8Stadelhofen, www.mehr-advent.ch. Open until Dec 23, 11:00 - 21:00, Thu - Sat 11:00 - 22:00. Closed Dec 1 & 8. CIRCUS CONELLI For more than 30 years now, when Christmas draws closer the Conelli Circus sets up its tent on the BauschГ¤nzli, a small island on the river Limmat right in the heart of the city. This year’s show is called Brilliant and includes acrobats, other circus elements like clowns and a Circus big band - all in a very festive atmosphere.QE-4, BauschГ¤nzli, 8BГјrkliplatz, tel. +41 44 212 33 33, www.circus-conelli.ch. Shows Nov 21 until Jan 4 daily usually at 14:00 & 19:30, Sun 14:00 & 17:30. No show on Dec 25 and Jan 1. Tickets 39 - 98Sfr, children half price. Tickets on site and www.ticketcorner.ch, +41 900 800 800 (1.19Sfr/min.). LIVE ON ICE - ROMANTIC SKATING IN KГњSNACHT Lit by a thousand lights, framed by trees on the one side and the lake on the other, the skating rink at hotel Sonne in KГјsnacht is probably the most charming far and wide. You can have a drink sat snuggled in a sheep skin just next to the rink and when it gets too cold move into the restaurant for a proper meal. In January they oп¬Ђer an open-air fondue on Tuesdays. Getting to KГјsnacht is easy: it’s just 12 minutes on the train from Zurich main station. Watch out: your destination is KГјsnacht ZH (canton ZГјrich), not KГјssnacht SZ (in canton Schwyz)!QHotel Sonne, Seestrasse 120, KГјsnacht am ZГјrichsee, www.sonne.ch. Open Tue & Thu 15:00 - 20:00, Wed & Sun 14:00 - 20:00, Fri & Sat 15:00 - 21:00, closed Mon. Admission 7 Sfr (includes a 5 Sfr voucher for drinks). Skates for rent 8Sfr for first hour, 3Sfr for every additional hour. SILVESTERZAUBER The biggest New Year’s Eve Party in Switzerland is called Silvesterzauber (вЂ�New Year’s magic’) and takes place around Zurich’s lake shore. Dozens of food stands, bars and tents with party music turn the area around Bellevue and BГјrkliplatz into a huge open air party. The climax of the evening is the п¬Ѓrework display paid for by Zurich’s hoteliers and Swiss Casinos Zurich. At exactly twenty minutes past midnight hundreds of rockets take oп¬Ђ from boats on the lake. Around 200,000 people attend, so make sure you don’t get stuck snogging behind a tree and miss all the action. You wonder why the п¬Ѓreworks start twenty minutes late - for 15 minutes before and after midnight the city’s church bells ring to bid the old year farewell and to welcome the new one. Qwww.silvesterzauber.ch. Open 20:00 - 03:00. Free admission. NEW YEAR’S EVE CRUISE How about a п¬Ѓve-hour lake cruise on New Year’s Eve? The MS Panta Rhei will glide over the water while you enjoy a six-course menu. DJ Janosch will then get you dancing to oldies and newer hits. If you prefer it without party music, take the MS Uetliberg. Of course you’ll be in pole position to see the п¬Ѓreworks just after midnight. Book in advance: www.zsg.ch.QE-5, ZSG - BГјrkliplatz, 8BГјrkliplatz, tel. +41 44 487 13 33, www.zsg.ch. Cruise starts 20:00. Ticket including dinner: 299Sfr, half price for children.

However in 2014 on the Sundays November 30, December 7 and 21 the shops in the city centre of Zurich are open from 11:00 - 18:00. Happy Christmas shopping! zurich.inyourpocket.com PD Many Swiss celebrate New Year’s Eve with a dinner with the family - either at home or at a restaurant - and go out to party later. Lots of restaurants oп¬Ђer special deals for New Year’s Eve, usually consisting of a more or less extended menu and champagne at midnight. Choose your favourite restaurant in our restaurant chapter - and don’t forget to call them as a reservation is essential. It goes without saying that all the bars and clubs in town have New Year’s Eve decoration and parties - including rather high New Year’s Eve admission fees. If you’re not touring in too large numbers, bar hopping might be a good alternative to a club option, even though especially the Niederdorf area will be really crowded. www.sonne.ch facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket December 2014 - January 2015 17 Culture & Events Culture & Events Zurich oп¬Ђers a rich bouquet of culture, with its opera and ballet of (at least) European renown and a packed programme of excellent classical concerts in the Tonhalle and elsewhere.

This look at one hundred years of design history ranges from locally anchored traditions to the design approaches of modernism. With more than 800 objects from the Design Collection the opening exhibition in the new Schaudepot (see p. 41) presents the п¬Ѓrst comprehensive show of Swiss design achievements. Everyday objects as well as iconic pieces of furniture by Le Corbusier, Max Bill, Hans Bellmann or Willy Guhl are shown in the form of sketches, prototypes, models, advertising п¬Ѓlms and photographs.QK-6, Museum fГјr Gestaltung Schaudepot, Pfingstweidstrasse 96, 8Toni-Areal, tel. +41 43 446 67 67, www.museum-gestaltung.ch.

PD 10.10 FRIDAY - 25.01 SUNDAY EGON SCHIELE - JENNY SAVILE The distinctive works of Austrian artist Egon Schiele (1890 - 1918), produced in less than a decade, confront the large paintings and drawings by British artist Jenny Saville (*1970). This is a meeting between two young stars, separated by many years and divergent artistic methods, who consistently distill in their work a strong sense of the body as the locus of lived experience. Schiele’s poses, deliberately low angles and painterly style imbue his mostly small-scale self-portraits with a concentrated strength that is every bit as intense as that of Saville’s gigantic formats.

MEN FASHION POWER. A tie tells us a lot about its wearer: his social standing, aesthetic preferences, or political stance, for example. Men’s fashion has rediscovered the tie in recent years. Free from the conventions and strict dress codes of the past, even the younger generation increasingly include ties in their outп¬Ѓts again. This exhibition is a result of this new-found currency, showcasing the accessory in all its facets and in diп¬Ђerent media. It covers the historical evolution of the tie since the seventeenth century, its role in women’s fashion and in rock music, as well as its occurrence in literature and art.QE-2, Swiss National Museum, Museumsstrasse2, 8Hauptbahnhof, tel. +41 44 218 65 11, www.nationalmuseum.ch.

ROCK, POP AND JAZZ CONCERTS zurich.inyourpocket.com Zurich has 16 cinemas, many of them with more than one screen and the large ones with up to 12 screens. Traditionally п¬Ѓlms in Switzerland are shown in their original language with German and French subtitles. But the big multiplex cinemas that have displaced some of the smaller ones in the last two decades have started to show more and more movies dubbed in German. In the best case they show two versions of the same movie: one in original language and one dubbed. In smaller cinemas you can still watch all movies in the original language - lots of them in English of course. They are marked with the letters Edf in the programmes (English with German (Deutsch) and French subtitles) a D (capital) indicates the movie is spoken in German. Check the daily newspapers or www.zueritipp.ch for programme and screening times. And donвЂ�t be surprised when the movie stops after an hour and the lights are turned on - itвЂ�s just the Swiss-style movie break allowing you to fetch another drink or snack. The cinemas we list below usually show п¬Ѓlms in original versions. Tickets cost somewhere between 15 and 21Sfr, depending on the movie and the category you choose. On Mondays tickets are 13Sfr in all cinemas on all seats. ARTHOUSE MOVIE There are six Arthouse cinemas in Zurich, all situated in and around the Niederdorf part of the old town, most of them in old buildings with charm and style.

But we really liked what we got: if you like Asian cuisine, you will deп¬Ѓnitely like the Bibimbap, a mixed rice dish with vegetables and beef. The Bulgogi, thinly-cut marinated beef was excellent too. As everything is freshly prepared in-house here, you need to bring some patience.

But there is meat as well - and not just the air-dried kind we recommend for a starter. Go for the п¬Ѓllet of beef for example or the not particularly Swiss but nevertheless tasty meat fondues. We like the traditional cellar-style atmosphere with the modern touch here. A good choice if cheese is what you’re after.QF-3, ZГ¤hringerstrasse 21, 8Central, tel. +41 44 269 44 44, www.walliser-keller.ch. Open 11:30 - 14:00, 18:15 - 23:00, Sat 18:30 - 23:00, Sun closed. In summer Sat closed. (21 - 49Sfr). JAB 26 Zurich In Your Pocket PD MEDITERRANEAN The Swiss cheese specialities fondue and raclette, originally come from the French speaking areas of Switzerland. Fondue is basically a mix of melted cheese and white wine bubbling over a small burner which you dip bread cubes into, while raclette is pure melted cheese which is poured over boiled potatoes. Locals mainly eat these dishes during the cold time of the year, we deп¬Ѓnitely recommend trying them whatever the season - the restaurants below are specialists. LE DГ‰ZALEY For decades Le DГ©zaley has been dedicated to dishes from the canton Vaud, situated in western Switzerland. The fondue prepared according to an old family recipe is deп¬Ѓnitely very tasty and also comes in a version with morels (mushrooms). Or get one of the fondue deals including a starter (like air-dried meat) and a dessert. Try one of the diп¬Ђerent sausages of the region, be it stuп¬Ђed with cabbage or just served plain with French beans or leek or go for one of the other Swiss dishes. The old part of the restaurant is more charming, so try to get a seat there.QF-4, RГ¶mergasse 7/9, 8Helmhaus, tel. +41 44 251 61 29, www.le-dezaley.ch. Open 11:30 14:30, 17:30 - 24:00, Sun closed.

PD BAR BASSO We like the style at the Basso - it’s modern and pure, without being super-cooled. The Italian-Alpine menu is also deп¬Ѓnitely worth a mention, oп¬Ђering e.g. tasty tartar, excellent cheese lasagne, served not in layers but open, so to speak, and some great cuts of meat too. They also have a wood-п¬Ѓre oven for genuine pizze. The service is attentive and fresh, and on a sunny day, their colourful outdoor tables just overlooking the Sihl canal are a lovely place to enjoy a good cup of coп¬Ђee.QD-3, Sihlstrasse 59, 8Sihlstrasse, tel. +41 43 497 25 28, www.barbasso.ch.

The ever fresh moules et frites (mussels with French fries) are what a lot of people come here for, or the tasty beef tartar. The restaurant works like a market hall: you place your order at the kitchen corner and itвЂ�s served to your table. It’s always very busy and loud - so come here rather for the outstanding fresh food and the industrial style than for a quiet evening with your signiп¬Ѓcant other. There is also a delicatessen in the back.QL-6, Pfingstweidstrasse 6, 8Schiffbau, tel. +41 44 273 11 25, www.les-halles.ch. Open 11:00 - 24:00, Thu 11:00 - 01:00, Fri & Sat 11:00 - 02:00, Sun closed.

JAB SORA SUSHI This all new Sushi place is located in the newly renovated main train station (towards Bahnhofstrasse). The plain interior design and the calm Japanese sounds in the background make for a very relaxing atmosphere. The sushi creations on the kaiten conveyor belt come in four price categories (5.50 - 11.50Sfr) and feature freshly made classic sushi, sashimi and maki creations and tofu cheese cake and pudding for dessert. We were pleased with taste and quality - as well as with the plum wine that went on the house. You can also order ready-made boxes to take away.

Reservations: 044-273 11 25 or www.les-halles.ch facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket December 2014 - January 2015 27 Restaurants SWISS CUISINE What the Swiss like to eat at home and when out is heavily influenced by their neighbours’ cuisine, especially the Italians. But what is real Swiss cuisine? Most Swiss would probably say: kГ¤sefondue (cheese fondue), a hot soup of cheese and white wine eaten by dunking cubes of bread in it. Delicious, but the smell can take getting used to. Raclette is another cheese speciality, melted cheese on potatoes served with diп¬Ђerent pickles and sides. WГјrste or sausages are also very Swiss, the bratwurst (usually veal) and cervelat (pork) being the most common. ZГјri gschnГ¤tzlets is a traditional Zurich dish, thin strips of veal cooked in a cream sauce, often with mushrooms. This is often served with rГ¶sti, a cake of fried grated potatoes, a bit like Spanish tortilla but also on the list of Swiss traditionals. Switzerland also has an impressive range of breads to go with the cheeses, e.g. the rich zopf (plaited loaf ) is a favourite for Sunday breakfasts. Fondue chinoise and fondue bourgignonne are not traditionally Swiss, strictly speaking, but these two meat fondues are very popular too. Both involve dipping meat into a pot, full of either hot broth (chinoise) or oil (bourgignonne) and then enjoying with a range of sauces and sides. Restaurants SPANISH TAPAS DEL MAR The Tapas del Mar is a modern stylish venue with bare concrete walls, a high ceiling and livingroom-style lampshades. On oп¬Ђer are dozens of diп¬Ђerent Spanish tapas - we recommend going for the tour - which saves you the hassle of choosing and gives you the opportunity of tasting as many things as possible (2 people minimum, 44Sfr. each). Besides it’s great value. You get some cold starters, as well as meat and п¬Ѓsh tapas and a dessert. Everything we got was freshly prepared and very tasty - be it the pasta de berenjenas (eggplant paste), the gambas al ajillo or the tender pinchitos cordero (lamb skewers). The service was quick and attentive - we had a really nice evening.QB-2, Hohlstrasse 78, 8BГ¤ckeranlage, tel. +41 44 558 99 36, www.zuerich.tapasdelmar.com.

ORIENTAL BEBEK This restaurant in the brand new urban settlement Kalkbreite is an architectural mezze platter: concrete walls, mosaic floors, high ceilings, chandeliers and a peek-through window to the neighbouring tram shed. We love the mix of concrete and orient. The menu is dominated by food from Lebanon, Greece and Turkey. We tried the Langstrassenteller - and loved what we got: skewers of chicken and kГ¶fte, tabouleh, tzatziki and chilli potatoes, everything was excellent. There are classics like hummus and mezze on the menu too. The service is a bit nonchalant, but friendly.

Some are with meat or cheese, many are vegan. The warm pita bread is served in little brown paper bags so it doesn’t dry out - a nice touch. The pleasant, light room with the lovingly selected secondhand tables and chairs feels just as right for extended coп¬Ђee in the morning as for an evening meal with a beer.

PD ZUM GROBE ERNST Don’t be scared oп¬Ђ by the name of this venue (Rude Ernest): host Ernesto is unhurried and comfy rather than rude. And recently his descendant Juan Carlos took over. The food they put on the plate is Spanish, though with visible Swiss and international influences: gambas al ajillo (shrimps in garlic sauce), paella, pollito flambeado (chicken flambГ©) or veal chops. As a side dish we recommend nudeln Ernesto (pasta with cream and cheese) - no matter if they match your main course, just try them. Sometimes a guitarrero makes the experience even more Spanish.

QUICK EATS Zurich Tourism (MR) There are plenty of options for a quick eat in Zurich, be it a speedy dinner or a snack on a tour through the city’s nightlife.

There are many other options, we list some of our favourites for you: NEW CAFГ‰ OSCAR This new bar in the main hall of the railway station is a pleasant mix of cafГ©, American deli and wine bar. The black furniture and dark parquet floor are quite elegant. A lovely touch is the modern interpretation of a stucco ceiling with intricate, asymetrical reliefs and a 50s style chandelier constructed of fluorescent tubes. This is a fast moving place, with a small but sensible choice of sandwiches (e.g. with pastrami), salads, desserts (e.g. New York cheese cake) and just two wines, which are however served in quite opulent glasses.

Zopf is one of the mainstays of Swiss breakfasts, a rich white bread baked in the shape of a braid, and is served with butter, jams, honey, cheeses or cold meats. Swiss bakeries bake a huge variety of breads - rye bread, maize bread or potato-andwalnut bread to name just a few - which add to the breakfast spread. Buttery croissants, called gipfeli in Swiss German, are also a favourite. Another breakfast dish with strong roots in Switzerland is mГјesli, made of oat flakes, grated apple, ground hazelnuts and yoghurt in the classic birchermГјesli version. Many Swiss don’t consider breakfast complete without one of the many takes on the mГјesli-theme. Here come our favourite breakfast places: BEBEK They serve nice Г la a carte breakfast variations with an oriental touch, every day until 16:00. See p. 28.

On the weekend people from almost half of Switzerland come to the city to have a good time. The main nightlife areas are Niederdorf (F-2/3) in the old town, the streets around Langstrasse (C-1/2) and Zurich West (L-6/7). There is a lively club scene - but with dozens of bars around, bar-hopping can be just as much fun. A night out in Zurich can be great, but quite expensive. If you’re heading for bars and clubs have some cash handy, as not all venues take credit cards. If you prefer it on the quiet side, there are wine and cocktail bars in the old town and around Paradeplatz. Check out our listings. CASUAL BARS CORAZON Just opposite the Prediger church the Corazon attracts the young and beautiful - and lots of students trying to escape the Zentralbibliothek, ZurichвЂ�s biggest library, on the other side of the square.

AE RAYGRODSKI The liquor bottles hanging upside-down from the ceiling are an eyecatcher here, but certainly not the reason why this bar is so popular with a young and fashionable crowd. The extensive cocktail library, the twelve diп¬Ђerent vodkas available (served with cucumber), the table service and the mix of the young, care-free atmosphere with some true style are the ingredients people love at the Raygrodski and you can count us in too.

The bar of the hotel Splendid in the centre of the Niederdorf district attracts people with all kind of backgrounds. Many have been around a lot longer than this bar, but youngsters pass by too while bar hopping in the area. This makes the Splendid a lively place at night.

The interior architects have done a п¬Ѓne job here: everything from the beige bar stools, to the pattern of the wall paper to the pulley-mounted wall lamps are a delicate match and give the bar a slightly aristocratic, 1900s touch. It’s a place for wine lovers, with many dozens of wines from around the world on oп¬Ђer. But they also have all the latest cocktails and more available.

The setting is as classic as can be and on the menu is (almost) every drink and spirit you could imagine. They’re all served with an assortment of snacks.

Three bars on two floors serve hard drinks for tough guys and girls. On the ground floor the juke box makes you the DJ, but you wonвЂ�t п¬Ѓnd anything soothing. The house special is chlГ¶pfti (donвЂ�t try pronouncing that): vodka or tequila mixed with a п¬Ѓzzy drink in a shot glass and then slammed down on the counter by barkeeper Ursi so hard they foam over.

If you make it, you will be allowed to carve your name into the wooden walls - what an honour. Give it a try, but be warned: it is not easy.

You head down some stairs just next to the kebap shop and arrive in a cellar, zurich.inyourpocket.com If you are looking for sins of the flesh, and then probably you’re male, Zurich oп¬Ђers what you can expect of a city of its size. In Switzerland prostitution is legal, so in Zurich you can п¬Ѓnd everything from strip bars to brothels. Street prostitution is allowed only in certain areas - for example at HГ¤ringstrasse in Niederdorf and in Altstetten in the so-called sex boxes (Depotweg, access by car only). At infamous Sihlquai, street prostitution is now prohibited. Broadly speaking you have two options: most of the strip clubs - which are called nightclubs or cabarets - are located in the Niederdorf part of the old town or around Langstrasse west of the main train station. What you can expect there are expensive drinks (i.e. 20Sfr for a beer) and shows with half-naked ladies dancing on a pole until they are entirely naked. In 2013 local media have reported rip-oп¬Ђs in the strip-bar Chilli’s, the victims even claiming to have been dazed and then made to sign huge credit card bills. The owner denies the reports, the prosecutor is still investigating. Stay alert. Brothels, sex and sauna clubs are generally situated in the suburbs or just outside the city. In the city you will п¬Ѓnd such establishments around HГ¤ringstrasse in Niederdorf and around Dienerstrasse in the Langstrasse district. As in other places, many prostitutes work because they have few other income options or, even worse, because they are forced to. Street prostitutes are particularly likely to be victims of human traп¬ѓcking. In 2010, several Zurich pimps received prison sentences for extreme violence against their prostitutes. BLOK This is one of Zurich’s hotspots for electro music. Mostly young folks come here to shake, scream (honest, they do!) and move their bodies to indie dance, nu disco and electro - or whatever the newest mix of electronic beats is called. For years people who were at least in their thirties used to party here. Well, the electro generation has taken over!QK-6, Schiffbaustrasse 3, 8Escher-Wyss Platz, www.blok-club.ch.

Many of the guests here deп¬Ѓnitely weren’t born when these songs were in the charts, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to shake their booties.

Admission to many places is free, if it does cost we indicate the full price followed by reduced price, usually the children’s price, e.g. 10/5Sfr. Museums are usually closed on Mondays. MAIN SIGHTS If you ask someone from Zurich which of the city’s sights represents Zurich best, they’ll probably point to the GrossmГјnster, its unmistakable double towers making it the closest Zurich has to a landmark. Wasserkirche and FraumГјnster complete the trinity of famous churches. Lindenhof is where Zurich started oп¬Ђ and is a lovely spot today, while the central police station is another unlikely lovely spot - unless maybe you’re escorted there. Its entrance hall is splendidly decorated with work by Augusto Giacometti. But two of Zurich’s major attractions are not man-made at all: the lake and the Uetliberg peak. FRAUMГњNSTER Today most people come to FraumГјnster to see the magniп¬Ѓcent stained glass windows in the choir created by French artist Marc Chagall in the early 1970s, or the windows by Augusto Giacometti. But in days gone by this Gothic abbey dating from the 9th century was more than just pretty. FraumГјnster, which literally means women’s 38 Zurich In Your Pocket abbey, belonged to the Benedictine convent whose abbess had wide powers in Zurich. Women came on harder times in the 16th century. The little archway on the outer corner of FraumГјnster (Poststrasse/MГјnsterhof ) was used to limit decadence and elaborate clothing, and women’s wide hoop skirts had to п¬Ѓt through here, or else a п¬Ѓne was due. No visiting during Sunday services.QE-4, Stadthausquai 19, 8Helmhaus. Open 10:00 - 18:00. GIACOMETTI MURALS In the entrance hall to the city’s police headquarters, Augusto Giacometti’s magniп¬Ѓcent murals (1923 - 1925) adorn the vaulted ceiling and the walls. Opening hours are quite short.QE-3, Polizeiwache, Bahnhofquai 3, 8Bahnhofquai/HB. Open 9:00 - 11:00, 14:00 - 16:00. Admission free, ID required. GROSSMГњNSTER The two towers of the originally Romanesque GrossmГјnster are Zurich’s landmark and they also oп¬Ђer a great view over Zurich, if you make it up the 187 narrow steps (4/2Sfr admission for the tower, open 10:00 - 16:30, Sun 12:30 - 16:30). According to legend, Felix and Regula, Zurich’s patron saints, were beheaded at the site of the Wasserkirche and then walked up to where the GrossmГјnster stands, taking their heads with them. Centuries later the emperor Charlemagne was passing through Zurich and decided to found a church in honour of the martyrs - after a hint from his horse. zurich.inyourpocket.com The colourful Giacometti murals are worth a visit. Zurich Tourism (RS) UETLIBERG The Uetliberg is Zurich’s own little mountain, marking the end of the Albis mountain chain on the western side of Lake Zurich. It rises up to 869 metres a.s.l. - towering around 450 metres over the city. There is a lookout tower on top bringing you to exactly 900 metres a.s.l. and oп¬Ђering a stunning view over the city, the lake and on to the Alps. The mountain is a popular local recreation area all year round. There is a train (S10 from track 21 or 22) from the main station twice an hour (more on weekends). Be aware that you need an additional ticket even if you have a day pass for Zurich (buy a 1 - 2 additional zones’ day ticket at the ticket machine). From the terminal station it’s an easy 10-minute walk to the peak with the lookout tower and a restaurant. You can also walk up from the city to the peak. Take tram NВ°13 in direction AlbisgГјetli and get oп¬Ђ at the last stop. From there two diп¬Ђerent paths lead to the top, both take about an hour. You do not need hiking equipment, but we recommend good shoes and staying on the path, especially in winter. facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket The lake is certainly one of the city’s highlights and a walk along the shores is a must if you’re in Zurich, whatever the season. Start for example at Bellevue and walk along the promenade towards ZГјrichhorn. After a few hundred metres a park with trees and a lawn п¬Ѓlls the expanse between the lake and the street. The huge Blatterwiese, also known as Chinawiese because the Chinese garden is just next to it, is popular for relaxing, sunbathing or playing sports. There is also a playground for kids. Continuing you get to ZГјrichhorn, a small delta with some lakeside restaurants and later still to the railway station Tiefenbrunnen where you can hop on a tram (or train) back to Bellevue. The western shore of the lake is a bit less popular though just as nice for a walk. Start at the Arboretum and walk along the shore passing Enge port, the cactuses of the Sukkulentensammlung, and the Mythenquai until you reach the Landiwiese, a large п¬Ѓeld where many cultural events take place. If you go just a little further, you can enjoy a beer in the restaurant of the oп¬Ђstream cultural centre Rote Fabrik, red factory, marked by the red brick factory chimney.

You can follow their footsteps, see many of the houses they lived and worked in and the graves where they are laid to rest. We’ve listed the sites for you, which also include museums and even a pub! The genius par excellence, Albert Einstein, studied natural sciences from 1896 to 1900 at the Polytechnikum, today’s Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), where he later became professor before being awarded the Nobel prize in physics in 1921. Among the new arrivals fleeing the First World War were Marxists and future Russian revolutionaries Lenin and his wife Nadezhda Krupskaya who spent a year of their exile in Zurich. The couple Emmy Hennings and Hugo Ball were to trigger a revolution right in the middle of Zurich itself: the anti-everything art movement Dada. Both active on stage, they were forced to leave Germany in 1915 due to their criticism of the war. Another war refugee, Irish author James Joyce, lived in Zurich from 1915 to 1919, where he wrote large parts of his modern classic Ulysses and also died in 1941 (photo above shows his grave). The furnishings of the James Joyce Pub are from the Jury pub in Dublin, mentioned in Ulysses. Renegade psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung worked at the BurghГ¶lzli psychiatric asylum in Zurich from 1905 to 1909. Thomas Mann, author of epics such as the Buddenbrocks and Nobel prize winner, also had close ties to Zurich and died here in 1955. The Thomas Mann Archive runs a small museum about his life.

In Zurich they oп¬Ђer daily guided walks through the old town, mostly in English, on some days in French and Spanish too. The old-town tour features all the classic sights and some history. They also have the Westtour, which goes to districts 4 and 5, including the former red-light and the former industrial districts. Tours last around 90 minutes and are a nice way to get a п¬Ѓrst feel of the city. Note that while these tours are technically free, you really are expected to tip at the end (the website says 12Sfr). Which is fair enough. This way your guide is guaranteed to work hard to make your tour worthwhile. Check their website for available tours and meeting points, no need to book.Qwww.freewalkzurich.ch. CHURCHES See main sights at the beginning of this chapter for the churches FraumГјnster and GrossmГјnster. ST. PETER St. Peter church is the one with the huge clock-faces on all four sides of the tower you can spot from far away. The diameter of the clock-faces is almost 9 metres - they are said to be the biggest in Europe. The п¬Ѓrst mayor of Zurich, Rudolf Brun, was buried here in 1360 - a copy of his tomb stone can be seen on the northern side of the church. The nave of the church was п¬Ѓnished in 1706, while the choir and the tower date from a Romanesque church built in 1230. This was the п¬Ѓrst church in Zurich that was built as a Protestant place of worship after the Reformation.QE-4, St.-Peter-Hofstatt, 8Paradeplatz.

Discover the city’s history and listen to anecdotes from its past in English and German. Good choice if you really want to see the old town, where the bus tours can’t go.

Actually, it was on an island in the river until the Limmatquai was built in 1839. Dating at least from the 10th century, what you see today is late Gothic style from the 15th century. See also the stained glass windows by Augusto Giacometti in the choir and the crypt with tombs almost as old as the church. A statue of forbidding Huldrich Zwingli stands at one end. Under the stone arches outside, the Kunstkiosk (art kiosque) sells books and prints and street musicians set up shop. If you get lucky you’ll hear the accordionist who gives masterful Bach recitals. Helmhaus gallery in the same building.QF-4, Limmatquai 31, 8Helmhaus. Open Tue 09:00 - 12:00, Wed - Fri 14:00 - 17:00, Sat 12:00 - 17:00. SIGHTSEEING TOURS BEST OF ZURICH - ZГњRICH CITY TOUR A city tour in an air-conditioned coach - including a short stroll through the old town and a ride with the Dolderbahn rack-and-pinion railway up into the residential area ZГјrichberg. In little more than two hours you get to see Bahnhofstrasse and the п¬Ѓnancial district, the old guild zurich.inyourpocket.com facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket December 2014 - January 2015 43 Old-town stroll Zurich Nord at the top of Marktgasse and now you’re on the main throughway of pedestrian Niederdorf, the other part of the old town. On the right is Cabaret Voltaire, from where the Dada movement - jolifanto bambla o falli bambla - set oп¬Ђ to confuse the bourgeoisie in 1916. A little further on to the left, set back in a little courtyard, is Schober, a richly decorated sweets and pastry shop worth at least a quick visit. Directly opposite are Schwarzenbach coп¬Ђee roasters - the irresistible smell gets even better if you stick your nose inside. Strolling further along MГјnstergasse you pass the Bodega EspaГ±ola on your right, where in the 1950s author Max Frisch used to drop in for a beer and a few tapas. The Amazon fountain at the end of Rennweg. www.juanrubiano.com Zurich’s old town snuggles up to both banks of the River Limmat, so our old-town stroll does much the same and heads upstream, crossing two bridges and passing a third. We set oп¬Ђ at the bridge named after Zurich’s п¬Ѓrst mayor, Rudolf-Brun BrГјcke, which is easily reached from Bahnhofstrasse or by walking along the Limmat (down Bahnhofquai) from the main train station. At the bridge’s south-western corner, just by the Swiss handicrafts shop, head down the steps to the metal walkway leading upstream along the Limmat, almost touching the water (Heiri-Steg). Soon you’re on a cobbled street (Schipfe), with some miniature antiques shops and boutiques on the right and the restaurant Schipfe 16, a work project for unemployed and well worth a quick stop, on the left. A few steps along you’re at Zurich’s landmark Romanesque - style abbey, the somewhat austere GrossmГјnster with its double towers and their rather unique, Neo-Gothic spires added in the 18th century. Looking towards the river, the third bridge, MГјnsterbrГјcke, appears and the graceful FraumГјnster Abbey is visible across the Limmat. Take the steps from the GrossmГјnster courtyard down to the Wasserkirche and the Helmhaus art gallery by the river and then cross the bridge to FraumГјnster (see page 38) to gaze at the famous stained-glass windows by Chagall. You’ve seen all the really important parts of Zurich’s old town now and can п¬Ѓnish oп¬Ђ with one of Zurich’s other major attractions - the lake - which is just п¬Ѓve minutes’ walk further along the river. RESTAURANTS CHEYENNE The Cheyenne is the place for American food in Zurich Nord: big burgers (they say the Big Mamma Burger is the biggest in town), spare ribs and Mexican-style burritos are its specialities. Sit at large tables and watch all the important football and ice hockey games on the screens. The signed NHL T-shirt of the famous Swiss player Mark Streit on the wall is CheyenneвЂ�s pride.

They of course have Murphy’s Red and Guinness on tap, all the sports on TV and and serve really aп¬Ђordable and we have to say delicious burgers (13 - 21Sfr). There are also some steak variations, pies and salads on the menu. Occasionally concerts. Cheers!QO-2, Schaffhauserstrasse 359, 8Sternen Oerlikon, tel. +41 76 261 00 30, www.coopers-pub. ch.

BK Just after Schipfe 16 take the climb up to Lindenhof (see page 39), just turn right and up Fortunagasse and then left into Lindenhof with its tall trees, one of the oldest parts of Zurich. The mediaeval German kings would stop over here and the Romans also occupied the spot in their day and age. Take in the view over the parapet or play with the royals who are always here, in one of the games of outdoor chess. Leaving Lindenhof opposite from where you entered (down Pfalz-Gasse), there’s a copy of the Roman tombstone which mentions Turicum (Zurich) on your right, set in the wall. Ahead of you is the church tower of St. Peter (see page 42), our next destination situated on one of Zurich’s most peaceful squares (St. Peterhofstatt). Going left, either of the alleys (Weggengasse or Thermengasse) gets you to the second bridge, RathausbrГјcke, also known as the vegetable bridge because of the small fruit & veg market held here on Saturdays. JAIME EL BARCO The Jaime is a bar with a South American touch in Zurich Nord, just next to the Courtyard Marriott. Hot panini for a snack, a frozen daiquiri or a margarita from the cocktail menu or a beer will cheer you up after a hard day of walking or working. There is table football and darts - quite some entertainment in this part of the city.QN-1, Otto-SchГјtz-Weg 5, 8Bahnhof Oerlikon, tel. +41 44 310 21 70, www.jaime.ch.

Our rigorous ramble takes us straight ahead, across the tram lines on Limmatquai and into Marktgasse, where you’ll п¬Ѓnd one of Zurich’s prettiest flower shops. Turn right 44 Zurich In Your Pocket The part of the city behind the two hills KГ¤ferberg and ZГјrichberg is commonly referred to as ZГјrich Nord. The districts 7, 11 and 12 used to be independent villages and merged with the city in 1934. Close to the airport they are now home to many international companies, the trade fair, some hotels and more and more restaurants and bars. You deп¬Ѓnitely don’t have to go to the city centre (even though it’s close) to have a good night out. Check out our favourites below: zurich.inyourpocket.com facebook.com/ZurichInYourPocket The Giesserei has lots of industrial charm. PD ten years ago. Since then it has made itself a name as a п¬Ѓne dining restaurant, though the place still looks like the last workers just left a couple of weeks ago. The menu is simple: every day there are a few diп¬Ђerent starters, main courses and desserts - an international mix according to the season and the desires of the kitchen crew. Warmly recommended.

AB December 2014 - January 2015 45 Winter joys Winter joys THERMAL BATHS & WATERPARKS In winter, Zurich is often covered by a thick layer of high-altitude fog. That doesn’t sound very pleasant, but in fact fog is way better than clouds in Switzerland as all you have to do in this case to get some sun is to climb a nearby mountain. Or even better: ski it. There are many resorts so close to Zurich that it’s worth going just for the day. These resorts listed here open as soon as there is enough snow, usually by the end of November or mid-December. Always check the conditions before you leave. The Swiss Federal Railways SBB oп¬Ђer combined tickets (including train and bus travel and the lift pass) to many of these resorts. But of course the city oп¬Ђers some winter fun too - see our suggestions below. DISCOS ON ICE (KUNSTEISBAHN DOLDER) Music, lights, dance shows - time to hit the ice!

From the bus stop Alpthal Stei, where you can also park your car, a path signposted SchlittelstГјbli gets you to the hut in 15 minutes, where you can rent sledges or sit down to a meal. From the hut to the top of the run it’s another 50 minutes walk.

The sledge run is within the ski resort Brunni-Alpthal (www.brunnialpthal.ch), which is perfect for beginners and with kids. To get there, take a train to Einsiedeln (change in WГ¤denswil), there change to the bus with destination Brunni. Get oп¬Ђ at Alpthal Stei (duration approx. 75 minutes).

FASHION Go any a di direc rectio t n for for sho shoppi ppi ping: pi ng: g: PPaarad r epl ra eplatz a . | Zu atz Zuric ri h Tour ric Tour ourism ism (BBM) Zurich has the reputation of a shopping city, even if not quite that of London or Milano. Especially Bahnhofstrasse is well known around the globe as one of the most exclusive and expensive shopping streets in the world. For Swiss and urban design, the area around Langstrasse is a good spot. In the way of shopping malls, Switzerland can’t match other European countries where huge centres are the order of the day. But maybe that’s a good thing. The Sihlcity shopping centre, an easily reachable mall opened in 2007, is an example of an innovative development - without being a giant. The malls and best shopping areas of the city are listed here together with other remarkable shops. Remember all shops are closed on Sundays except at the railway stations. Bahnhofstrasse (E-2/5)The Bahnhofstrasse leads from the main railway station to the lake and is mostly a pedestrian area almost without traп¬ѓc - but watch out for the trams! It’s world-famous for its luxury stores: п¬Ѓnd jewellery, watches and designer boutiques as well as the big department stores Jelmoli, Globus and Manor here. In recent years not to everyone’s pleasure more and more big foreign companies like Apple have opened stores on Bahnhofstrasse displacing some traditional Zurich companies - some say Bahnhofstrasse is losing its atmosphere. Nevertheless a walk down this famous street is a must for every shopping fan. Wander into the side streets as well, where shops are no less luxurious and some more unusual little gems are hidden. The main shopping areas are: Niederdorf (F-3/4) Even if Niederdorf - the part of the old town east of the river Limmat - is better known for dining and nightlife than for shopping, it’s well worth expanding your shopping tour into this quarter. Along the streets Limmatquai and Niederdorfstrasse - both pedestrian areas - you will п¬Ѓnd smaller shops with up-to-date street wear, fancy shoes and fashion stores. The smaller alleys are also well worth a peek. OPENING HOURS Many shops on and around Bahnhofstrasse are open Mon to Fri 09:00 - 19:00 / 20:00. Smaller shops including jewellers and shops outside the centre often close at 18:30, some are closed on Monday mornings. On Saturdays most shops open from 09:00 - 17:00 (or 18:00, department stores until 20:00). On Sundays all shops are closed (except in train and petrol stations). However shops in the city centre are open on Sundays Nov 30, Dec 7 & 21 from 11:00 - 18:00 for Christmas shopping. Banking hours are Mon - Fri 08:30 - 16:30. 50 Zurich In Your Pocket Sihlcity shopping mall has some nice vistas.

Children have their own idea of how to have a good time and stylish bars or Gothic cathedrals may not exactly do the trick. But no fear, there’s plenty to do with children in Zurich. MUSEUMS & ZOOS If you’re looking for places to learn and discover stuп¬Ђ, try these suggestions. ZURICH ZOO Zurich Zoo is located on ZГјrichberg high above the city. The pride of this zoological garden which was opened in 1929 is the Masoala Rainforest hall, simulating the ecosystem in the Masoala National park in Madagascar on some 10,000sqm. Animals like lemurs or giant tortoises can move freely around in the hall as you watch and walk by on a path through the forest. Keep your eyes peeled, probably a chameleon is sitting on a branch right next to you. But the rainforest is not the only thing worth seeing. Since 1992 Zurich Zoo has gradually been changing the traditional-style enclosures into whole ecosystems which better meet the animals’ needs, e.g. an Indian dry forest for the lions or Himalaya mountains for snow leopards, wolves, and Siberian tigers.QJ-1, ZГјrichbergstrasse 221, 8Zoo, tel. +41 848 96 69 83, www.zoo.ch.

This former-mill-become-museum has a whole lot to say about growing wheat, milling flour and baking bread. The industrial mill is still functional and is set at 15:30 every day, but if you ask the miller nicely he’ll set it going for you at other times. With lots of hands-on exhibits, this is a good place to go with children. Every Friday you can buy a range of bread that is baked on site.

TOY MUSEUM ZURICH (SPIELZEUGMUSEUM) Some of the toys here may well bring up gentle childhood memories - but some go back a little too far for that. The collection shows doll houses, tin cars, railway sets and other toys from around Europe from the 18th to the 20th centuries. Pondering these little gems you realise how technological change and social dreams are reflected in toys. Great for toy enthusiasts and patient children.QE-3, Fortunastrasse 15, 8Rennweg, tel. +41 44 211 93 05, www.zuercher-spielzeugmuseum.ch.

The most central playground is next to Lindenhof (p. 39, E-3) and there is a large one next to the Chinese garden (G-7). The Gemeinschaftszentren (or GZ), community centres of the city also have good playgrounds. GEMEINSCHAFTSZENTREN (COMMUNITY CENTRES) The 17 community centres, called Gemeinschaftszentren, are co-funded by the city. They function as a meeting point for the residents of a district and can be visited by anyone for free. They usually have a playground for kids and a little cafГ©-bar, many oп¬Ђer organised activities and some even have some farm animals to watch and stroke. A visit is sure to be fun for you and your kids, not just because you are likely to meet other families there. Parents beware: Franz Carl Weber has a powerful tug on kids.

KINDERCITY Kindercity is a science city for children aged 1 to 12, much more hands-on than a museum - and when did you last do bungee-jumping in a museum? Diп¬Ђerent so-called knowledge lanes are dedicated to topics like the human body, renewable energy or modern communication, using sight, sound, smell and action to let children discover, accompanied by an adult. There is a cafГ©, open-air play areas, magic trains and a car driving school on the roof for under-aged drivers - and much more. From Zurich, take trains S9 or S14 (direction Hinwil/Uster), change at PIZZA PASTA CIAO! This restaurant has a playroom for kids with a baby sitter. So you can enjoy their classic Italian food all the way to the espresso and be sure your kids are having fun too. The menu features everything that comes to your mind when you think Italy: from home-made pasta to pizza to meat like filetto di manzo (beef п¬Ѓlet).

Bahnhofstrasse ZГјrich,versГјssen. www.fcw.ch Spielsachen, 62, die8001 TrГ¤ume December 2014 - January 2015 61 Queer Zurich Zurich is undoubtedly Switzerland’s gay and lesbian capital and is in general quite queer-friendly. What better proof than the election of lesbian Corinne Mauch as mayor in 2009? Zurich’s vibrant queer scene was one of the driving forces in creating today’s club culture. Of course, some of the queer venues are cool places to hang out even if you’re hetero. Zurich’s queer calendar has several major events, all in spring or summer. For over ten years a Christopher Street Day has been held in June. Called Zurich Pride Festival since 2010, this is a huge event with parties, open-air bars and a colourful march through the city. In spring the Pink Apple film festival (April 29 - May 7, 2015) shows gay and lesbian films from all over the world and awards a prize to a young director. But the queer scene is also very lively, big events aside. Whether you’re looking for a gay-friendly bar to relax in, gay and lesbian clubbing or venues of a more raunchy kind, you’ll find it in Zurich. Two of the city’s iconic gay clubs closed in 2013 - but happily new ones have opened, so there is hope. Check out the websites or ask in some of the bars too. Hotels HELDENBAR Here you’re oп¬Ђ the beaten track and on the territory of the non-commercial gay scene. The Heldenbar (hero’s bar) which only comes alive on Wednesdays is a purely nonproп¬Ѓt aп¬Ђair. Sometimes the DJs are professional, sometimes totally amateur, the style of music changes from week to week. If you don’t want to dance, step outside with your beer for a chat on the banks of the river Limmat just behind the venue. Or take up a table-football challenge. QL-6, Provitreff, Sihlquai 240, 8Quellenstrasse, www.heldenbar.ch. Open Wed 20:00 - 01:00. No admission. MГ„NNERZONE A gay sex shop with fetish articles during the week (Tue to Fri 12:00 - 19:00 and Sat 12:00 - 17:00), the MГ¤nnerzone (men’s zone) turns into a very popular gay bar on Fridays and particularly Saturdays. It’s men only and tends to be 30 and up, though there’s no oп¬ѓcial rule on age. It’s strictly a bar, no dancing, which maybe п¬Ѓts the many bearded, beary guys you’ll п¬Ѓnd here.QC-2, Kernstrasse 57, 8Helvetiaplatz, tel. +41 43 243 30 43, www.maennerzone.ch.

From Friday night to Monday morning, prices often drop sharply. Why not take advantage of this and spend a weekend in one of the many four- and п¬Ѓve-star hotels in the city?

We list the hotels according to their oп¬ѓcial classiп¬Ѓcation in the following categories: Cream of the Crop*****, Upmarket****, Mid-range*** and Budget (0 to **). Outside this classiп¬Ѓcation we list some of the hostels in town. The prices indicated include VAT. The city tax is 2.50Sfr per night and is usually additional. and either one king-size bed or two doubles (1.40m each). Aluminium prints of the industrial past of the district hanging on the walls make a counterpoint to the classy dark magenta easy-chairs and the standard lamps. There is a gym for your workout, a sauna, a restaurant and a bar - and room service of course.

In 2008 British architect Norman Foster added two meandering wings to the fairy-tale-castle main building from 1899 with its turrets and balconies. The result is an amazing mix of modernity and tradition. And no matter in which part of the hotel you book your room, the comfort and the amenities oп¬Ђered are uncountable. Either modern design and generous floor-to-ceiling windows in the new wings or the sense of history in the main building. The sumptuous 4,000sqm in-house spa, the exquisite ballroom and art from Warhol to DalГ¬ are just some of the elements that make this a truly extraordinary hotel.QJ3, Kurhausstrasse 65, 8RГ¶merhof, tel. +41 44 456 60 00, fax +41 44 456 60 01, info@thedoldergrand.com, www.thedoldergrand.com. 173 rooms.
