Description
Discover Europe with the 'Only In' Guides - only the most beautiful cities and their unusual sights! The ideal city guides for travellers who want to escape the crowds and go beyond the well-known paths, as well as for those inhabitants who perhaps thought they already knew their city.
- A comprehensive illustrated guide to more than 80 fascinating and unusual historical sights in Switzerland's largest city
- Ancient walls, secret gardens, curious museums, converted factories, and shops with a difference
- From Roman Turicum and the Old Swiss Confederacy to the Helvetic Republic and the Industrial Revolution
- A most complicated clock, an elephant in the woods, the emperor's paddle steamer, and the original 'Dark Restaurant'
- Coffee with Lenin, the forgotten Mrs. Einstein, in the footsteps of James Joyce, and a martyr to the Reformation
