St. Peter's Cathedral in Zurich is located in the centre of Zurich, the Swiss financial center. It is the oldest church in Zurich. The Church Tower, built in 1534, has the largest church clock dial in Europe. The dial diameter of the clock is 8.7 meters, the hour hand is 3 meters long and the minute hand is 4 meters long. This church tower is used to monitor fires. It is said that once a fire alarm occurs, a flag is stretched in the direction of the fire to tell people where to put out the fire. It is similar to the beacon tower in ancient China. Zurich Cathedral, Notre Dame Cathedral and St. Peter Cathedral are the three main churches in Zurich. St. Peter's Church is not far from Lake Zurich. It is opposite the Limat River from the end of Lake Zurich, which is separated from Notre Dame's Cathedral. It's very convenient to go to Zurich Cathedral by tram and other public transport.

    When St. Peter’s Church did not come before, I often heard that after this church came, it felt more unexpected. It was really beautiful. It was photographed with the blue sky and white clouds behind. It seemed to be in some places in Tibet.

    St. Peter's Church is also a long-standing building in Zurich. The church has a century-old history and is well protected. The city here is basically not eroded by the war. It is a very good place to visit and a place to feel European religious culture.

    One of the three churches in Zurich, close to the river, is in a great location, the building is very solid, a bit like modern architecture, if it is not the tower and the big bell at the top, it is difficult to judge it is the church, the pink exterior paint is very chic.

    St. Peter's Church is the oldest church in Zurich. It is said that the diameter of the bell tower is the largest in Europe. It is a landmark building in Zurich that can be seen from afar. The interior of the church is very simple, there are no murals, but it still looks very solemn.

    To the north of Notre Dame's Cathedral, there is St. Peter's Cathedral. St. Peter's Cathedral allows indoor photography (Anyway, there is a sign that no photography is allowed in the flowers). St. Peter's Cathedral is situated on a small highland. It needs to be uphill to walk from Notre Dame's Cathedral.
