Platzspitz

  Platzspitz sits at the confluence of the Limmat and Sihl rivers in Zurich, right across from the Zürich Hauptbahnhof, or main train station. Dating back to the early 19th century, this historical park was once a vibrant site for social gatherings and cultural events. Today, it serves as a popular green space for locals and visitors alike, featuring pathways for walks, a playground, and a diverse array of trees, such as horse chestnuts and lindens. From mid-April to late October, the park is often bustling with picnickers and joggers enjoying the warmer weather. Visitors can also admire sculptures, relax by the riverside, or simply enjoy the lively atmosphere that this urban park offers.
