Was in Zurich for a good one day, train transit from Strasbourg, France to Frankfurt, Germany. Although it was a mere 20 hours, I can say I fell in love with this City and am sure I will be back for longer. I had no expectations of this place and allowed the largest city of Switzerland to offer me the sweet memories it lives by.
But honestly, I wished I could be here for a month and go to the alps for some snowboarding. Wrong weather I suppose, it was Autumn!!! But snow sports all year round I am guessing.
Little things that makes a difference from KL to the world's most self sufficient city and not to forget city of clocks!!!
We booked in at the ibis Hotel in Technopark. 5 minutes to the trams. I must agree the tram system is 10x better than Melbourne.
A new neighbourhood which used to be an industrial park. Many buildings are being converted into residential units.
PULS 5 must've been a factory warehouse before it turned into this beautiful apartment cum exhibition center below. We were fooling around in the park which was just opposite the hotel and had a short conversation to a Dutch who lived here for a good 30 years or so and was living at the apartments. He was walking his pet, a French Bulldog, an anesthetist, 50 years old and it was his birthday. Must be a shock how much info you can get from a good 10 minute conversation.
He was really friendly and inviting, we almost made it into his apartment if not for his sleeping roomie. Then he still managed to bring us to the exhibition area for a look about.
A wine exhibition going on! The entire warehouse smelt like wine.
Doing a bit of walking and at the corner, it was pretty creepy, there were many bicycles and all had broken wheels, flat tires, chained, broken, left overs what's the odd seriously?!!>!>!! Spooky!
Turbinenplatz
Zurich at night, it's a beautifully lit place, although nothing much, it leaves alot to think about.
This is the morning view of Technopark
