Swim city

Switzerland may be a landlocked country in the middle of Europe, but with about 6% of Europe's fresh water flowing through its countless rivers and lakes, there are plenty of outdoor swimming spots to cool down in the Swiss summer heat. Today, we're dipping our toes in the pristine waters of Lake Zürich in Switzerland's largest city, which has developed its own urban lido culture. Dotted across Zürich, you'll find lots of lidos (public open-air swimming pools or bathing beaches) that make the most of the city's lakes. This time of year, it's common to see bankers and other workers change from business suits into bathing suits as they enjoy a quick swim during their lunch break.

The lakeside lido in our image is called Strandbad Tiefenbrunnen. There's no sand here, but it does feature a circular boardwalk built over the water that surrounds a shallow pool. Nearby, there's a 200-foot water slide spilling into the lake, diving platforms, and a sprawling lawn for sunbathing and activities including yoga, volleyball, and table tennis. And of course, as we're in Switzerland, you're never far from the mountains—the snow-clad Alps are visible from here on a clear day. Swiss bliss.

游泳城

瑞士可能是欧洲中部的内陆国家，但是欧洲大约6%的淡水流经无数的河流和湖泊，在瑞士的夏季热中有很多户外游泳场所可以降温。今天，我们在瑞士最大城市苏里希湖的原始水域中畅游，苏里希湖已经形成了自己的城市丽都文化。在苏黎世，你会发现许多丽都（公共露天游泳池或浴场）充分利用了城市的湖泊。每年的这个时候，银行家和其他员工在午餐休息时间快速游泳时，通常会从工作服换成泳衣。

在我们的图像中，湖边丽都被称为Strandbad Tiefenbrunnen。这里没有沙子，但有一条环绕浅水池的圆形木板路。附近有一个200英尺高的滑水梯，滑向湖中，有潜水平台，还有一片广阔的草坪，可以进行日光浴和瑜伽、排球和乒乓球等活动。当然，当我们在瑞士时，你永远不会远离群山，在晴朗的日子里，从这里可以看到覆盖着白雪的阿尔卑斯山。瑞士的幸福。
