Switzerland (20 Guides)

Switzerland is known for having one of the most famous cities in the world, Zurich. This great city is known for having some of the best shopping in the world and is often compared to London and New York. Shopping, golf and skiing in the east of Switzerland are just three of the main reasons tourists come to this great country.

Downtown Zurich is home to some of the most famous designer boutiques in the world. Many designers who sell their clothes in New York, Paris and London often choose Zurich as well. When you reach the city, walk or take a cab to Bahnhofstrasse to visit all of the upscale boutiques that are in this section of town. You can walk up and down the street going from boutique to boutique easily.


Golf in the eastern region is just as enjoyable as in the western part. The Golf & Country Club Schönenberg in Liechtenstein boasts one of the best courses in the region. The course not only offers golf, but a wide range of golfing amenities as well. The Golf Club Lipperswil is another luxury course in the area. This course features rolling hills, spectacular hills and some of the best greens in the region. 


Head to the mountains and do some skiing at what are arguably the best skiing destinations in the world. Skiing in Engelberg is truly a unique experience.
