Today, I will introduce you to Zurich, located in the north-central part of the Swiss Confederation. It is the largest city in the Swiss Confederation, the capital of the canton of Zurich, the national political, economic, cultural and transportation center, and the richest city in Europe. The city has been rated as one of the most livable cities in the world by the United Nations Human Settlements Program for many consecutive years. The city of Zurich has a population of 420,200 and an area of 91.9 square kilometers. The urban area is divided into the east and west banks by the Limmat River. The west bank is the old town of Zurich, while the east bank is the new town of Zurich. Zurich is an important cultural center in Europe. Dadaism, which appeared in 1916, originated in Zurich, and the headquarters of the International Football Federation is also located here. Zurich is a representative city of the Swiss banking industry and one of the largest financial centers in the world. Because it is home to the headquarters of more than 120 banks in the world, more than half of which are foreign banks, it is also known as the "European Billionaire City."
