Essence of Zurich: Alpine Indulgence

Travel to Zurich for a slice of decadence paired with a perfectly sweetened piece of Swiss chocolate. Indeed, Zurich is a beautiful spot, with white-capped Alpine peaks beckoning in the distance and cool sparkling waters of Lake Zurich lazily lapping its shores.

Due to the long-standing tradition of Swiss banking, the city is a thriving financial center, though it possesses a much more elegant charm compared to other trading epicenters such as New York and Tokyo. It is scant on glassy high rises, but flush with history. The Old Town district presents a dazzling architectural array of ornate renaissance and medieval masterpieces, presented with immaculate upkeep and only the most eloquent modern details. Beset with the tasteful splendor of this stunning backdrop, there is really no better place than Zurich to indulge every sense.

3 Key Reasons to Travel to Zurich This Year

Plush Amenities 

At first glance, Zurich seems a little bit small-town and old-world, which lends its abundant charm, but the city itself is not short in sumptuous amenities. Whether you choose to stay in a chic and centrally located boutique hotel or a palatial nearby resort with all the amenities and breathtaking views of the peaks and the lakes, you will delight in the plush accommodations. Sleep soundly in the Alpine air and then relish your days exploring Switzerland with a luxury rental. Style-seekers in Zurich will find more than just watches, though I will argue that the exquisite engineering of a select Swiss watch, where fine art and machinery meet, is attraction enough. Along the sleek storefronts of Bahnofstrausse, trendy tourists will be able to visit with their favorite names, from 'Cartier' to 'Tiffany' and a few uniquely Zurich titles, as well. Imagine stepping out for a night on the town in a sparkling Maserati Quattroporte while sporting your fantastic new purchases!

Uniquely Zurich

Speaking of stepping out, you will absolutely want to make your way to the locales that bless this city and make it so extraordinary. With tickets to the world-class Zurich Opera house you will be able to see masterful works of musical and theatrical performance. Art fans will want to peek at the collections at the Museum of Modern Art as well as the more classic collections in the nearby Winterthur. Treat that someone special to a sunset lake tour and marvel at the glittering reflection of this gorgeous town. Raise your champagne flute in the brisk night air and allow the beauty of the valley to surround you. For some extra Alpine scenery, I recommend a day trip to the nearby town of Interlaken for sweeping mountain views and that famous Swiss essence.
