Zurich celebrated last night the beginning of the holiday season. It was a night of late shopping on the Bahnhofstrasse, a time to drink Glühwein outside, to eat Lebkuchen and Panatone, to listen to singers and much more.
Some stores like Och, celebrating its 175th anniversary, invited customers to Champagne and toasts. Conelli circus had its first performance. Roby Gasser, the director of Circus Conelli, welcomed the evening’s guests to the circus 30th anniversary. People enjoyed the beautiful light display of Lucy and the lit up buildings and Christmas trees.
