Traveler reviews
Steven Johnson
★★★★★3 months agoLoved walking along the water in Zurich through this "park" which is connected to so many other neat areas. On a sunny spring day, we could have spent our entire day in Zurich sitting right here looking at flowers, boats, and birds.
Abdul Muqueet (Dr SAM)
