Zurich is one of the richest cities in Europe and it is also very expensive so when you go, make sure you take plenty of money with you because you will surely spend it. By the way, the currency of Switzerland is the Swiss Franc.

It is perfectly located in a valley with a large lake and mountains surrounding it towards the South. You can have great tours in the surrounding areas.
Zurich is the financial capital of Switzerland and famous for it's multi-cultural population. There are people from all over the world, lots of cultural events and beautiful architecture.
