We wandered down this famous shopping street a couple of times checking out the window displays because walking into some of the shops looked a bit intimidating. Lots of high end places. Also lots of interesting architecture which is worth looking out for. On the day we took our stroll (a Saturday from memory) there was a large open-air market at the end furthest from the railway station. Some interesting stalls and cheaper than the adjacent shops.

This is one of Zurich main and most expensive shopping streets. If you have the funds then you will enjoy the exclusive and high end shopping there. For those in a budget, stroll by and enjoy the ambiance and window shopping. Nonetheless, it's worth a visit.

We love the Bahnhofstrasse! Every time when we visited Zurich, we would always drop by the Bahnhofstrasse! This long shopping street is in the heart of Zurich, it runs through from North to South, which begins from the train station & end at the edge of the Zurich lake. Being one of the most expensive shopping streets in Europe & the main commercial hub in Zurich, you would be surprised that you could still find many shops that are very affordable for normal people, I.e. H&M, Adidas, Nike...etc. The closer to the lake, the more expensive they are. (i.e. lined with upmarket shops selling jewelleries or Rolax...etc.) There are also serval lovely but very affordable restaurants located on the side streets along Bahnhofstrasse. The street is always very clean and there are tramlines running along it. It is very easy to walk & we love it!
