Remake: Switzerland

I had exactly 1 hour and 33 minutes for my city walk through Zurich. The city was once called Turicum by the Romans and, with 1.3 million inhabitants, is the largest city in Switzerland. And its unofficial capital.

Remake: Switzerland

I had exactly 1 hour and 33 minutes for my city walk through Zurich. The city was once called Turicum by the Romans and, with 1.3 million inhabitants, is the largest city in Switzerland. And its unofficial capital. Past Fraumünster and Grossmünster, I made my way to Niederdörfli (in the background of the photo) by the Limmat. At the end, there was a quick detour to Lake Zurich with a view of the Üetliberg (hopefully spelled correctly). Huge thanks to lovely @laura_weidmann for the tour. In the photo you can at least see half the crew from the photo in North Macedonia, my 50th country. Melina @meuila and Jeanne @jeannerie_ complete my group of friends in Switzerland, though sadly Melina only joined after the photo was taken and Jeanne had an important appointment:/
From there, I carried on towards Stuttgart, but Weltreisebär took a different path and has finally ended up right where he belongs: on the road!
