A wide variety of people live together here and it can get loud and happy at the weekend.

Idaplatz

Idaplatz is located in the middle of the beautiful Sihlfeld district in Zurich district 3. This district has become an insider tip in recent years. There are many local shops, bakeries, cafes and restaurants. Every spring, the cherry blossoms on the trees wrap the quarter in a kitschy fairytale landscape. For many locals, Idaplatz is the meeting point for an after-work beer. The mild summer nights can be wonderfully enjoyed at Idaplatz.

Bullingerplatz

Another insider tip is Bullingerplatz in district 4. This is the place with the longest sunshine. People like to sit around the big fountain and chat until late at night. The Cafe du Bonheur is definitely worth a visit.

Frau Gerolds Garten

Frau Gerolds Garten is a hip, spacious and urban city garden with lots of greenery, connected to bars and shops made from old freight containers. On warm days you can linger here with a cold drink and good food. This is definitely a hotspot in Zurich. It can get really crowded here on the weekends. There are also concerts and other events from time to time. The surrounding area also has a lot of culture to offer with various music clubs, restaurants and a standing surfing wave. Yes, you heard me right! Urban Surf is the name of this location including bar and restaurant. Surfboards can be borrowed.

Josefwiese (Pass By)

The Josefswiese is one of the most beautiful parks in Zurich in district 5.

Im Viadukt (Pass By)

The old railway viaduct is a mixture of shopping street and cultural center. Many small shops from local brands as well as restaurants and a market hall. The disused train route now serves as a footpath and cycle path, which of course we don't want to miss.

Flussbad Oberer Letten

The Lettenareal is "the" recreation zone in the city. Where trains used to run on railway tracks, all sorts of city dwellers now jog, skate, play or swim and enjoy the water and fresh air. The baths in the upper and lower Letten are meeting places for many people in Zurich. In summer it can sometimes be difficult to find a place on the meadow.

Platzspitz

The Platzspitz Zurich is one of the oldest parks in the city right next to the State Museum behind the main train station. It is centrally located between the two rivers Limmat and Sihl. At the end there is an interesting but also tragic story from Zurich to hear.
