The old botanical garden is my favorite green island in the city center. Thanks to a collection of moveable wooden chairs, it is an ideal spot for reading or having a chat with friends. The park is surrounded by office buildings and the Schanzengraben: a moat that serves as a hidden promenade from the city’s very center all the way to the lake.

Outdoor garden with food stands and local stores.

Motto stands for independent, rare and beautiful books. Specialised in art, design and photography, Motto offers a wide selection of books, magazines and artists' publication. Beside the book shop, also the so called Corner Collage has its home in this room. Corner College is a platform for lectures, workshops, exhibitons and other kind of academic stuff with a lot of experimental energy.

This picture stands for every water in Zurich. As soon as it's warm enough, you' re able to jump in wherever you want to. And when the sky is clear, you may see the white mountains while you're swimming in the lake.

Spend a leisurely morning brunching at Restaurant Viadukt... aaaaah. We sampled some pretty awesome pancakes here while chain-drinking delicious espressos.
