Zurich is the new Berlin. No hesitation, no competition. This formerly staid banking capital has experienced such a creative explosion in recent years, and such a mushrooming of innovative bars, restaurants and shops that it resembles Berlin's salad days of the mid-eighties and early nineties.
Zurich remains Switzerland's commercial and financial hub, and the canton is the country's most affluent.

Suggested Itineraries in Zurich
The Beyer Museum is devoted to time pieces of all kinds, from shadow sticks to striated medieval candles to Renaissance table clocks to watches that check their own accuracy via a wireless connection with an atomic clock. The exhibition is arranged chronologically and has a technical as well as an aesthetic emphasis.
Zurich's Fluntern Cemetery is where James and Nora Joyce are buried; the grave has a statue of the author. The cemetery also houses the graves of Elias Cannetti, who won the 1981 Nobel Prize for Literature, and Johanna Spyri, the author of Heidi.
