Regardless of which sector of the industry you or your company is involved in, it’s more likely than not that when you think of Switzerland you think of one of three things: banks, chocolate and alps. As much as we would love to dive into the rich history of chocolate or take you through a virtual tour of the world-famous snowy alps, we’re going to let you in on one of the best kept secrets to filming in Zurich for the most affordable prices and most professional results. Yes, it’s true that Zurich is home to the headquarters of the some of the biggest banks around the world who are attracted to the city, in large part, to the low-level of corporate taxes that it offers in comparison to other international cities, but this in no way means that Zurich is an inexpensive city to travel to. On the contrary, Zurich is consistently ranked as one of the top-ten most expensive cities to live in the world!

With landmarks that date as far back as Roman times, these cobblestone streets will be sure to give you that iconic European look that instantly adds class to any video. If you want to step it up a notch, go to Lidenhof Hill where you’ll find the Roman castle and St. Peter, a church that is easily identifiable for its clock tower.
Great Church (Grossmunster) & Church of Our Lady (Fraumunster) If gothic or religious is more of what you’re in search of then surely you can’t pass up filming near the Great Church and Church of Our Lady. The Great Church, which dates back to the 12th century, is perhaps one of the most recognizable landmarks that the city has. Sitting right on the Limmat river, it’s twin towers, which can be seen from afar, are sure to look impressive in any shot. The Church of Our Lady sits opposite the same river and is renowned for its stained glass windows.

Here is where you’ll come across some of the youngest and hippest Swiss considering that it is the fashion center of Zurich with stores like Louis Vuitton and Giorgio Armani. Coincidentally, the street is also well known for some of the most famous international banks that you’ll find there. This whole area will give you the most modern and edgy look that Zurich has to offer.
