Switzerland is a well-known winter destination, but it offers lots of fun activities during the summer months, too. Nowhere is this truer than in Zurich. This beautiful city is bordered by a lake to the south and divided in half by a river. Furthermore, its rich cultural displays span centuries, starting in the Middle Ages and going all the way up to modern times. All of these features can be best appreciated in summer.
瑞士是著名的冬季旅遊勝地,不過在夏季時它也提供許多好玩的活動。這一點沒有任何地方比蘇黎世更貼切的了。這座美麗城市的南邊毗鄰著一座湖泊,並有一條河流貫穿其中。此外,它所展現的豐富文化橫跨數個世紀,從中世紀開始一路到現代。所有這些特色最能在夏天欣賞到。
When the temperatures rise and the sun beats down, many locals head to Lake Zurich for a swim. Several areas of this lake have swimming pools built right in the water. Visitors who prefer to stay dry can simply take a walk along the lake and enjoy the view of the snow-peaked Alps. They could also hire a paddleboat and pedal their way across the water. In the evening, areas along the lake turn into outdoor restaurants that serve tasty food.
當氣溫上升、烈日直射時,許多當地人會前往蘇黎世湖游泳。這座湖泊有好幾處直接蓋在水裡的游泳池。比較喜歡保持乾爽的遊客可以就沿著湖邊散步,享受白雪覆蓋的阿爾卑斯山景色。他們也可以租一艘腳踏船,踩著踏板橫渡水面。到了晚上,沿湖有些地區會變成提供美味食物的戶外餐廳。
Zurich can also be enjoyed on a bicycle. The city lends bikes out for free, so hop on one and head over to the old part of the city, with its stone-paved lanes and fashionable cafes. Be sure to stop and admire the 9th-century Fraumunster Church. You'll recognize it by its tall, green steeple.
你也可以騎腳踏車遊覽蘇黎世。這個城市免費出借腳踏車,因此跳上一部腳踏車前往這個城市的舊城區吧,那裡有鋪著石頭的巷道和新潮的咖啡廳。一定要停下來欣賞興建於九世紀的聖母大教堂。你能從高聳的綠色尖塔就認出這座教堂。
