Quaianlagen, Lakeside promenade in Zürich, Switzerland

The Quaianlagen extends along Lake Zürich with tree-lined paths, benches, and multiple access points to the water between Enge and Tiefenbrunnen districts.

Engineer Arnold Bürkli managed the construction project in 1887, transforming Zürich from a medieval riverside town into a modern lakefront city.

The General-Guisan-Quai section features a promenade adorned with sculptures from three generations of artists, creating an outdoor gallery experience.

Multiple tram stops and bus routes connect visitors to different sections of the quayside, with restaurants and cafes located throughout the promenade.

The Utoquai section maintains its original 1887 wrought iron railings and small staircases leading directly to the lake shore.
