Embark on a Journey Through History
A stroll through the cobbled streets of
Altstadt (Old Town) is akin to stepping back in time. With
Happytripz, you'll explore centuries-old buildings, marvelling at the medieval and Renaissance architecture that speaks volumes of Zurich's past. One significant landmark that can't be overlooked is the

This piece of history is not only impressive; it's linked to the very development of Zurich as a city. Discover more about this fascinating backstory on
