NYTIMES: "walk S along the W bank of the Limmat..to the Lindenhof...site of a former Roman customs house that sits at the highest point of the Old Town and overlooks the water with views of the Alps."

Matej Ra

Perfect place for lunch or meet up with friends. Depending on which exit from the park you take, you can walk around river Limmat to lake Zurich or end up on Bahnhofstrasse. Both are pretty close.

Lindenhof (the nearest tram stop is Renneweg), site of a former Roman customs house that sits at the highest point of the Old Town and overlooks the water with views of the Alps.

Zürih'in içinde başka bir dünyada sanki. Mutlaka buraları gezin. Marketten aldıklarınızı bir bankta oturup yiyip için.
