Pretty much the only thing open on a Sunday in Zurich. You can do some shopping (grocery/other), get something to drink, browse the International newsstand, and often there are expos etc.
Erhard RüttimannFebruary 8, 2020Clean - convenient and organized well. Trains mostly on time and great train station.
MashaFebruary 7, 2013If you wanna change euros, go to travel center of SBB and buy the ticket, you will get CHF change for better deal than in Western union!
Stephen CrockerDecember 8, 2014Quite spacious but very basic in places. The shopping plaza downstairs has plenty of options but keep to the escalators when changing levels; I found a drug addict on one of the staircases!
Check out the art around the main tracks; the lights on the wall with birds and numbers represent the Fibonacci spiral.
Weltklasse ZürichSeptember 6, 2011One day before the meeting in the Letzigrund Stadium the best shot put athletes meet in the big hall of the Zurich main station for their competition. Be there on Sept. 7th 2011.
Punctuality is the name of the game. Everything runs like clock work
Simy RajanMay 9, 2013Take a walk from here to Zurcihsee. It's the wealthiest streets in the world. Banhofstrassse
A visit to the station is not complete without sampling some of the sausage at any of the vendors in the main area.
Andy CodDecember 22, 2011Take a train to Ticino (biasca, Bellinzona, Lugano) in 2 hours you are in the canton of te sun =)
Don't try to enter the first class with a second class ticket ;-)
JauntedApril 16, 2011Amazing station. Eat at Federal and buy Luxemburgerli from Sprungli. You've got to pay to pee at the McClean toilet area though.
Market on Wednesdays is good. If the person you're looking for isn't at the Treffpunkt look under the blue angel.
Try the Asian food near by track 41/42 next to kkiosk and press&books.
Art in the main hall includes the landmark Guardian Angel by Nikki de Saint-Phalle
Check out the panel at the "Groups" meeting point in the main hall to control the colourful light installation, hanging from the ceiling. It's fun! :-)
Catch S7 and see left size of the lake all the way down. Some nice houses along the way.
Rumours tell that trainspotting is rather easy, at this place.
Rich marketplace every Wednesday in the main hall with a lot of different food and stuff from all over the World.
Thomas von NiederhäusernNovember 26, 2014"Underem fätte Ängel" (under the fat angel) - my usual meeting point 😄- Cheapest grocery available at Migros in Shopville in underground shopping arcade.
Fabian SegoviaFebruary 21, 2015My job headquarter... I departure every day to all over the country.. 😃
First Class coaches or compartments are normally marked with a yellow stripe!

"Great location inside HB, shops sometimes hard to find and spreadout. But for someone who knows HB well this is a great quick shopping opportunity with shops spread everywhere in the trainstation."
