After doing Zermatt and the Glacier Express and stopping in Chur on our way back from St. Moritz, I thought we might just need a bit of a rest day in between all of that Swiss highlight action. And I was right. Considering that my family loves to take photos, I decided that we would sleep in but try to make the Burkliplatz market for a bit of photography inspiration as well as to pick up some yummy Swiss cheese and other nibbles to try later in the evening.
I love the Burkliplatz market because it is like a dependable friend. It is without fail always open on Tuesdays and Fridays, always comes ready to please with stalls and stalls of vendors, and you never leave disappointed... unless of course you buy too much! And everything is always so beautifully displayed - don't believe me? Check out this slideshow!
After a stroll through the market, we wandered around my favorite parts of Zürich, then had lunch at one of my new favorites on a sunny day, the Restaurant Bauschänzli, right on the Limmat near the market. Read my write up on this biergarten on Spottedbylocal - Zürich!
Then we went home and chilled, to prepare for the next day's adventure - Stein am Rhein!
Ps. If this post looks familiar, that is because I did a similar one in May last year. Can you blame me though? The market is incredible!

The Bauschänzli is my favorite! Schnitzel and kartoffelsalat, yummmmmmmmmmm!
Such a gorgeous market! I wish there were some like that around here. Even if they were a lot smaller, it would be so nice!
Ah well, I will just have to dream of being in the beautiful places that you post here. :)
