    Zurich is home to the largest covered Christmas market in Europe. It takes place from the last week in November until christmas inside the Ville RailCity, which is a part of the main train station.

    More than 160 market stalls offer their christmas goods around a 15 m tall christmas tree. The tree is usually decorated with about 5000 Svarovski crystal ornaments.

    The Christmas market in the main railway station is the largest indoor one in Europe! It always features a huge Christmas tree decorated by Swarovski art. The stools are not only in the main hall but also downstairs in the underground shopping mall.

    There are all sorts of gifts and clothing, jewellery, candles, herbal teas. Basically, you name it and you can find it.

    Zurich is known as the "little big city”, partially because it offers the type of shopping experience normally found only in much larger cities. The main shopping area is so concentrated that Zurich can be considered a shopping paradise for pedestrians. While the Bahnhofstrasse and the surrounding areas cover less than one square kilometer there is rarely a label of any stature that is not available.

    Jewelry and Watches

    Just about every label in the jewelry and watch business can be found in or around Bahnhofstrasse : Cartier, Bvlgari and Tiffany & Co are there as well as all the Swiss watches from Tissot to Patek Philippe.

    Chocolate and Sweets

    Confiserie Spruengli, Honold and Teuscher are makers of just about the finest confectionery and all conceivable kinds of chocolate.

    Fashion

    Zurich has an incredible number of designer shops spread out along Bahnhofstrasse and both sides of the Limmat. All high-profile international designers are represented and a lot of lesser-known labels can be seen in boutiques that frequently adjust their offerings in accordance with the latest trends : Dior, Emporio Armani, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, H&M, C&A ...

    Books

    The English Bookshop stocks a large selection of British and American titles. The Librairie Payot is specialized in English and French books. Interlingua (some English and some German) is the leading language learning bookseller and offers books, tapes and instructional material in any conceivable language. The Travel Book Shop (German only) carries a wide variety of maps, German and English travel guides and literature about different countries and ethnic groups. Scalo Books offers a huge variety of international art books and catalogues from shows all over the world.

    CHF 100 ... huge amounts

    Lindt chocolate is probably one of the most famous Swiss brands which is known all over the world.

    The company was founded in 1845 and their headquarter is situated in Kilchberg in the canton of Zurich.

    Nowadays their premium chocolate and confectionery are produced in six factories, mainly in Europe but also in the United States.

    In Switzerland the Lindt chocolate products are available in a wide variety in almost every shop from small souvenir shops to big supermarkets and department stores, like Coop and Manor.

    One thing I will advise would be shoppers, is to avoid buying things from the taxfree shops, except you dont have a transit visa to come out of the main airport here.
    At the arrival 2 is this huge shop called Airport shop where you can also take connecting train to other parts of Zurich and Swiss.

    I took this picture at the arrival two main hall to show that, you must leave the main terminal, and walk across to the Airport Shopping. Avoid buying the same item at the taxfree shops at the airport itself as they are more expensive.
