Proving there is more to Zurich than banking, clean streets and
punctuality, this explorer's guide shows a very different side to
the Swiss city. An illustrated guide to over 80 fascinating and
unusual historical sights in Switzerland's largest city. Roman
ruins and medieval walls, curious museums and secret gardens,
quirky shops and converted factories. From Roman Turicum and the
Old Swiss Confederacy to the Helvetic Republic and the Industrial
Revolution. Locations include the home of FIFA, an elephant in the
woods, the emperor's paddle steamer, and the original Dark
Restaurant. Also Coffee with Lenin, the forgotten Mrs. Einstein, in
the footsteps of James Joyce, and a martyr to the Reformation. Set
off on your own urban expedition with the Only In Guides! These
ground breaking city guides are for independent cultural travellers
wishing to escape the crowds and locals keen to learn more about
where they live. Unique locations, hidden corners and unusual
objects.
