Zurich, Switzerland Cruise Port

Zurich, which is known for its cleanliness and efficiency, is Switzerland’s most populous city and lies along the Limmat River which flows into Lake Zurich. Many consider Zurich the gateway to the Alps, the beautiful snowcapped mountain range that covers roughly 65 percent of Switzerland. This is also the economic capital of Switzerland and its population consists of nearly one-third non-Swiss natives. Despite the influx of foreign influence there are still some truly unique Swiss things to experience or purchase in the city, including Swiss chocolate, Swiss bread, pastries like Zopf – a braided bread made with milk and eggs – and Tirggel – a hard pastry made with honey and flour.
