Limmatquai, Pedestrian zone along Limmat River in Zurich, Switzerland.

Limmatquai extends for one kilometer through the city center, connecting Bellevueplatz square to Central plaza alongside the right bank of Limmat River.

The construction of houses directly on the river shore began in the 12th century, while the modern street infrastructure was completed during the 19th century.

The street contains multiple guild houses and the Rathaus building, where both city and cantonal parliaments conducted their legislative assemblies.

Public transportation lines 2, 4, and 15 serve the area, which has been closed to private vehicles since 2004 to create Zurich's largest car-free zone.

The Riviera project transforms the waterfront by adding trees and redesigning spaces between Utoquai, Quaibrücke, and Limmatquai to enhance the riverside experience.
