With 365,000 residents and almost a million people in the surrounds, Zurich（苏 黎世） is the country's biggest city. Although the city's roots go back to 15 BC, it wasn't until 1848 that the districts of Switzerland united in confederation（联邦）. Today, Zurich is a world-class, international destination which attracts millions to tourists every year. The arrival of immigration has changed the city's face. It's common to find Chinese or Lebanese dishes next to a Swiss restaurant selling traditional food.

Once known as a banking and business center, the city has slowly reinvented itself. The best evidence can be found in Zuri West. It used to be an industrial area, and has been transformed into a place of fashionable restaurants, shops and apartments.

I parked my bike at the Schiffbau, a former boat-factory that is now one of the hottest places in town. It was still early morning, and I wandered past La Salle

Restaurant, where people were laying white cloth on the tables. Then, I walked over to the former Lowenbrau brewery factory, which now houses five art galleries and three museums.

Traveling around Zurich by bicycle is enjoyable, and it's a good idea, since

parking spaces are hard to come by. There are many bike tracks along the wide, clean streets. For a deposit of CHF 20 (about US$16), visitors can get a bike for free at the bike station behind the Hauptbahnhof (main train station).

The city's best shopping can be found in the area south of the train station, which offers plenty of treasures, from high-end designer clothing to the world's best watches. Switzerland is not part of the European Union, which contributes to higher prices than many other places in Europe. At times, the prices can be shocking, such as having to pay US$11 for two small bottles of water.

He also attempted to climb Mount Everest with other wounded servicemen, training for the difficult journey with Prince Harry, though the mission had to be called off due to avalanche(雪崩) risks. Karl said, \intended to use that life to give back to them as long as possible.\
