What travellers are saying
- Alien W807 contributionsA very beautiful lake. There is a fountain. At the edge of the sky Alps stands just there. It is a bit pitty that we visited it in a cloudy day so the view is not clean.Written 9 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AirplaneMoonWorld4 contributionsI really was impressed by this zoo for many reasons. They treated the animals very ethically and there were many interesting exhibits.

- Jan S1 contributionAmazing views and good facilities at the top. We caught the tram up and then walked back down into Zurich. The walk is very steep, so don’t think it’s an easy amble! We enjoyed it - but underestimated the number of steps and gradient!Written 12 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- artwithoutboundariesHong Kong, China392 contributionsIt is a magnificent collection of non-European art. The museum is not big, but the collection is extensive. Each piece of art is meticulously curated. I enjoy following the route map since it allows me to make connections with each object. After the tour, I got the opportunity to talk with the museum staff about my feelings. They are all art enthusiasts who are well-versed in their museum collection. Must visit if you're in Zurich.Written 13 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
