The Lindenhof is a quaint square on a little hill in the heart of the Old Town. It offers magnificient views of the eastern bank of the river Limmat and the surrounding hills.
As well as that, remains of a Roman castle from a time when Zurich was called Turicum can be found here.

The Lindenhof is situated at the western bank of the river Limmat. The nearest tram stop is "Rennweg" (line 6, 7, 11, 13). Leave a Comment

It was pretty much deserted when I was there on a Saturday morning, may it's still too early for the locals.
The view of the city and the river from here is great. A good place to take pictures, definitely. Leave a Comment Directions: Off Rennweg, onto Fortuna Gasse

Considered as the most beautiful park in Zurich. A romantic and peaceful area where wonderful views to the Limmat River could be enjoyed. A meeting place for Chess gamers and nice area for pincis or just to relax. Leave a Comment Directions: Off from Rennweg, onto Fortuna Gasse

The Lindenhof is a surprising oasis in the heart of Zurich. This small hill was originally the site of a Roman castle. This became derelict by the 9th century, and since then it has been home to a residence, a quarry, and then a place for civil meetings.
These days this leafy terrace offers a welcoming respite from the streets below, and a great place to get an overview of the city. Take some time out to enjoy the views, eat your sandwich, and watch the locals play boules, or chess on those giant chess boards. Leave a Comment

At least on this Saturday, Lindenhof was a nice quiet leafy retreat from the blaring techno music on the streets of Zurich, but on any day it's one of the nicest views of the riverside in Zurich. Leave a Comment Directions: Off Rennweg, onto Fortuna Gasse

That aside it is also a place with an interesting history. The Romans built a custom station here about 15 B.C. which is considered the founding of the city. There is also a fountain (from 1912) that reminds of the women of Zürich who defended the city against the Habsburg/Austrian troops in 1292.
