popular for tourists. Amongst its traditional Churches, cathedrals, building

foot and nearby the town centre.
Its pedestrian streets host the cafes and bars but do not forget to visit
the beer halls to tickle your taste buds! This city is one of the most
beautiful cities in Europe with astonishing backdrops with its crystal-clear
Zurich Lake and its amazingly clean narrow streets.
As well as working around the clock and being very much in time and
obsessive with cleanliness, this city also has a second side to it with
various out of character bars and cafes. This city is astonishing and very
welcoming with its metropolitan side.

Nightlife in Zurich
The most popular area to visit at night in Zurich would be the old town
on Niederdorfstrasse or Oberdorstrasse which always pull crowds. The city
has an amazing dynamic club scene which covers all genres. The most well
known club is U4 however there are plenty more around the city. If you visit
in the summer one of the clubs to visit is Volksgarten Disco as its roof can
be retracted to reveal the sky!
Café/Bar Odeon
Legendary
Bohemian landmark that's had countless eccentric artists and intellectuals
in its red leather banquettes - not to mention the odd fascist. Mussolini
apparently knocked them back in here before the Second World War. (And Lenin
did before the first.) It's a cosy, classy, intimate café that does great
lunches and fine cocktails it's also open until late if you can handle it,
4.30am on Fridays and Saturdays - anyone? Style is turn-of-the century art
nouveau; there are cute banquettes to sit in; a curved wooden bar to order
at, and pavement tables outside for summer sun. Despite its ageing status,
it's still popular with a trendy, in-crowd and draws more than its fair
share of Swiss beauties.
