James Joyce lived in Zurich during the first world war and again came back to Zurich in 1941 where he died shortly. He is buried in Friedhof Fluntern (Fluntern Cemetry) which is located on one of the highest hills in the Zurichberg district,wherefrom you get an excellent view of Zurich city. It is not close to Grossmunster or the other Cathedrals, but is situated at a distance of about ten kilometers.Even though Joyce is a literary giant and an important personality, I did not deem it necessary to discuss him in a travelogue which was concentrating on the architectural aspect of the old city.

banjaara,
interesting travelogue. . .i wonder, with your mention of swiss banks, top name designer companies, and what not, did you have a chance to visit the site where the irish author james joyce is buried. . .that is at the highest vantage point in zurich is it not, and not too far away from one of the cathedrals you describe? perhaps you missed that particular highlight of your travels? or perhaps it just wasn`t so important to mention?!
and those of you who consider yourselves to be gentlemen. . .this is a travelogue about europe. there was no need to either bring up or respond to anything regarding islam and hinduism. honestly. . . .*sigh*.

Gentlemen!
Could you please take it elsewhere. Much obliged. Harimau, I expect some feedback from you since you have travelled extensively in that area.

[Here is a nice humorous verse from bhagawad gita, enjoy.
``Of the many headed non-poisonous serpents, I am the divine anantha. I forbid thou from patting thy holy cow on the rump, `cause thy holy cow will get mad and kick thee in thine divine nuts, and then refuse to service thy widower pitaji, who`ll then have to go after other farm animals like arjuna and krishna. And I will appear in this world in my original trancendental form by my internal potency.`` Chapter 6 Verse 10]
Sounds more like a verse from the chapter titled ``The Cow`` (Al-Baqara) in the Koran!
Chapter 2 Verse 222 onwards starts talking about wives. Is that a subtle reference to what a woman in a burqa looks like underneath?

Jang: I did not see any film crew during my sojourns in Switzerland. They usually arrive in summer, whereas, I was there in March which is still cold by Bombay and Madras standard.
Zwingli and James Joyce would be turning in their graves, watching a cyber war on Zurich by the followers of Mohammad and Shiva.The dog-fights over Zurich have provided me with an idea to write about Ayodhya, concentrating on Babri Masjid and Hanuman GaRhi. I am sure the followers of the two faith would have enough cannon-fodder to destroy each other and in the process I might cross hundred interacts for the first time;)

[...yes, harimau where were you??]
On the ``Sanatana Dharma`` board? Don`t have anything to contribute on the religion. Too lazy to post other than intermittently for the last month or so.
If you meant Switzerland, you must be a mind reader! On top of Jungfraujoch where the restaurant is named ``Bollywood`` and serves Indian food and the commonest language I heard at the visitor center was Tamil!

Did you see any hindi or tamil movie shoots taking place in front of a tram or something? It seems that if stay for more than 2 hrs on zurich airport, you tend to hit at least one crew or some starlets (you can tell them by the way they seem to have only a makeup-kit as hand-baggage)]
I am told that in some of the more common locales for movie shoots, there are signs in Hindi!
