Park Platzspitz, Zurich

This is one of Zurich’s oldest green areas. During the 14th-century it was used for hunting and shooting, eventually leading to the Knabenschiessen shooting contest being founded here. It’s in the city centre, opposite the main station and next to the national museum, making it a perfect, easy-to-reach spot to take a sightseeing break for a stroll or picnic.
