A Tale of Ara Dika: Switzerland Trip Part 4

Uetilberg

We did not have any plan on our last day in Switzerland. Hence, we just wanted to explore Zurich again and hunted for Pokemon haha.

We walked around the Toni Areal to catch some Pokemon, we were excited since Niantic just launched the third generation of this game. From there, We took tram no.8 until the last stop.

Surprisingly, the view from there was beautiful. We could see Lake Zurich (Zurichsee) with the snowy hill as the background. Luckily, it was a beautiful day yet still cold and windy

We took another tram from there with a different route. No specific destination, since we only wanted to explore the city.

After exploring the city with the tram, we went to Lily's, one of the recommended restaurants in this town. I ordered Beef Pho, it was delicious with a rich and tasty soup. About the price? As always, expensive for me hehe. But it was worthy especially in the cold weather.

We sat there for a moment to discuss where to go after this. Suddenly, I remembered that there is a place to see Zurich from the top from Uetilberg. To go to that site, we took train S10 from the central station. The trip to Uetilberg was around 25 minutes.

Happy to see some snow again in this area :) and we walked around 15 minutes to the point where we could see the city from the top

By the time we reached there, the scenery was breathtaking. We could see the city, with the lake and Alps! It was super worthy to come here, but it has to be in good weather too, otherwise, (i guess) you will not see anything

Before it got dark, we went back to the central. Another tip for you is to manage the time when you come here. The train ticket is valid for a few hours (I forget to be exact for how long), therefore you do not need to buy a new ticket to go back. No ticket = save money :)

We decided to have dinner before we went to the hotel. And again... The choice was visiting Asian restaurant (Suan Long around The Old Town) haha. I should try more local foods, but the temptation of eating Asian foods was too big especially we walked a lot plus the weather.
