Platzspitz park

Platzspitz, officially Platzpromenade, is a park in District 1 of the city of Zurich, Switzerland. It is located next to the Swiss National Museum (Landesmuseum) and Central Station and bound by the rivers Sihl to the west and Limmat to the east. The confluence of these rivers lies just north of the park.

Several tall Platanus trees grow in the park, which are some of Zurich's oldest trees. The park also features a statue of the Swiss poet Salomon Gessner and a gazebo. At Platzspitz's northern end, two bridges link the park with the neighbouring quarters and the Dynamo youth center. The park shares a landing stage with the Landesmuseum, served by the ZSG Limmat river cruise.
