Description
Discover Zurich's secret green city with a local landscape architect. Explore the hidden green gems, waterways and urban spaces where city highlights and natural wonders interweave.
Year after year, Zurich ranks among the most liveable cities in the world. But why? The answer isn't just in the healthcare or education systems — it's in the streets, the parks, the fountains, the waterways, and the green spaces between buildings that bring the city to life.
Discover Zurich through the eyes of your guide, landscape architect Marta, who will take you to some of the city's most scenic spots and reveal the stories behind its hidden gems. Blending urban planning and landscape design, your guide will show you how an architect created a whale's ribcage to protect a park, how an apparently wild riverbank is actually a landscape planned down to the millimeter, and how citizens vote — referendum by referendum — to decide what kind of city they want to live in.
