Escape to the beautiful Dolder Grand Resort, overlooking Lake Zürich and situated on the edge of Adlisberg Forest. Guests staying at the resort experience a resort-like stay in the city with storybook scenery, easy access to the capital of Zürich, exclusive pop-ups, a unique modern art collection and beautiful fall foliage. Here are four more reasons Dolder Grand Resort should be at the top of your fall travel list.

 

Oriental Hideaway Pop-up

Hidden within the hotel, Oriental Hideaway, a place celebrating Middle Eastern flavors, invites guests to enjoy the culinary brilliance of Chef de Cuisine Firas El-Borji. Until Oct. 29, indulge in a delightful menu with classics like hummus and falafel, Biryani rice dishes with lamb and shrimp and new vegetarian options. The menu focuses on the use of fresh, seasonal ingredients of the highest quality.

 

Hiking in the City

Immerse yourself in the outdoors with walks or bike rides around Lake Zürich, Käferberg and Greifensee. Enjoy stunning views of the city and Alps. You can even have Dolder Grand pack you a picnic with fresh cheeses, charcuterie and chilled Champagne.

 

Daytrips from Zürich

The Rhine Falls, Rigi and Säntis are a few must-see destinations in Switzerland. The Swiss Alps appeal to all nature lovers; the mountains Rigi, otherwise known as the Queen of the mountains, awes all who witness it; and Säntis, the highest mountain in Eastern Switzerland, lies just a little more than an hour from Dolder Grand.

 

Kunsthaus Zurich

Discover the art and culture of Zürich by exploring its unique art exhibitions and Swiss galleries. The Kunsthaus Art Museum displays art from the 17th century through modern day and is the biggest and most complex art museum in Switzerland. Kunsthaus holds significant art exhibitions, including pieces from Monet, Picasso, Beckmann and Corinth.

High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
