I arrived in Zurich on a beautiful sunny autumn day. This picture postcard city is wrapped around Lake Zurich and follows the Limmat River.

It’s hard to believe Zurich is Switzerland’s largest city, the financial centre and has a population of over 300,00 but perhaps it’s because everything is under control.
