THE AREA
Zurich combines Old World atmosphere with the cosmopolitan flair of one of the world's financial capitals. The city is set on the Lake of Zurich and the banks of the River Limmat, which divides the old town from the new. The Niederdorf district, on the east bank of the river, is the heart of the old city. This pedestrian-only area is known for its cobblestone streets and historic guildhalls; with its numerous cafés and bars, it is also a great place to spend an evening. West of the river, you will find the most important business and shopping areas, centered around Zurich's main street, the Bahnhofstrasse.
