    Take lots of cash coz it aint cheap. you can get proper duty free though, as its outside the EU region.
    People are friendly and the food is good, but I only stayed around the airport area, Kloten so not much help really - sorry

    I only spent one night in Zurich as I had to go to the Zuirch Museum of Design for work (www.museum-gestaltung.ch/E_welcome.html) but I also visited;

    Fraumünster Church - has a big blue spire and famous stained glass windows by Marc Chagall www.zuerich.com/en/page.cfm/excursions/region/highlights/5285

    Kunsthas Gallery - big art gallery www.kunsthaus.ch

    The Kronenhalle Restaurant where James Joyce and other arty famous people regularly ate http://www.kronenhalle.com/
    We didnt eat there as it was expensive - I ate in a lovely wee place called The Roten Kamel http://www.roteskamel.ch/

    Apart from that I just spent the free time I had wandering around the streets looking up - the style of roof they use is so different to home.

    If you have time, I'd suggest going to the lakes for a swim. They're really clean, and the grounds are lovely. Pm me if you want pics, I'm sure I have some lying around.
