8Zurich, Switzerland
Zurich is often seen as a financial hub, but it also offers natural beauty and cultural richness for travelers with limited time. Spend your first day exploring Bahnhofstrasse, one of the world’s most exclusive shopping streets, and visit the Fraumünster Church to admire its famous Chagall windows.
On day two, take a boat trip on Lake Zurich or visit the Swiss National Museum. If you’re in the mood for nature, a short train ride will take you to the Uetliberg Mountain, which offers panoramic views of Zurich and the Alps. Zurich’s combination of urban sophistication and natural beauty makes it an excellent choice for a short European escape.
