About Old Town Zurich (Altstadt)

Zurich's medieval heart — two neighborhoods on either side of the Limmat River: Lindenhügel (left bank) with the Grossmünster twin towers and guild halls, and Niederdorf (right bank) with the Fraumünster's Chagall windows and the city's best independent restaurants and bars. Walkable in an afternoon; endlessly revisited.
