Switzerland: Shopping Holiday

Switzerland is not the cheapest of destinations, and as such does not come high on the list for keen retail therapists. However, when visiting Switzerland there are some special purchases to consider, including embroidery and linen. Also look out for Bernese woodcarving, chocolate, cheese, Swiss army knives and luxury handmade clocks and watches when you’re shopping in Switzerland. Zürich is the shopping capital of Switzerland, centred on the luxury boutiques and department stores of the celebrated Bahnhofstrasse.
