What attractions in Zurich?

I`m planning to visit Switzerland from UK. Not sure either Zurich or Geneva has more attractions. Please?

  • Answer:

    Hi. It would be good to speak a little bit French if you go to Geneva (its the French part so this makes it much easier for you- sometimes they speak just French). Lucerne or Berne are more beautiful than Geneva or Zurich (but thats just my own opinion - I am Swiss/German). Zurich is good for shopping (Bahnhofstrasse and so on). But Lucerne or Berne (old town Berne= UNESCO cultural heritage) have a very nice old town. If you go in September or October it will not be that touristy. Lucerne is located at the Vierwaldstaettersee and you can make a paddle steamer trip or go on a mountain (Rigi, Pilatus, Stanserhorn....). Zurich is situated at lake "Zuerichsee" but the higher mountains are not really in the near of Zurich. Geneva has a nice old town and the French flair, situated at Lake Geneva and the alps are not that far away. I would prefer Geneva, Berne or Lucerne. And: Berne is the capitol of Switzerland.

Why don't you go to both places....I believe it is not very far. There is a train from Zurich to Geneva . Don't miss the opportunity to explore. Switzerland is a lovely country.

Geneva is prettier - right in the mountains and on Lake Geneva. They speak French rather than Swiss German which may be helpful if you speak French. Zurich is a city with a few problems, including drugs among the youths. I don't like it anything like as much as Geneva.

Never been myself but a friend that lives there loves the area around Geneva - Zurich is just more like all the other capital cities in the world - which are all becoming more alike. Of course - it depends what interests you most really!

I was in same situation before but I 've booked my flight for late August for Geneva as many of my friends and cyber friends suggested me for Geneva. So I think, go for Geneva . . Have good trip !!!
