In the heart of Zurich is a square kilometer (about 1/3 sq. mile) of shopping, including the exclusive stores along Bahnhofstrasse. Your shopping adventure might begin more modestly at the top of the street, at Bahnhofplatz. Below this vast transportation hub is a complex of shops known as ShopVille.

ShopVille is open from 8 am to 8 pm every day except Christmas. Most shops are open Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6:30 pm and on Saturday from 8 am to 4 pm. Some of the larger stores stay open until 9 pm on Thursday, and other shops are closed on Monday morning.
