ZSG in the context of List of rivers of Switzerland

The following is a list of rivers of Switzerland (and tributaries thereof). Included rivers flow either entirely or partly through Switzerland or along its international borders. Swiss rivers belong to five drainage basins, i.e. of the Rhine, the Rhône, the Po, the Danube or the Adige. Of these, only the Rhine and Rhône flow through Switzerland (and also originate there). The waters therefore drain into either the North Sea, the Mediterranean Sea or the Black Sea.

Some of the larger rivers, such as the Aare, Limmat (ZSG) and Rhine (URh), are in part navigable and include recreational boat lines.

ZSG in the context of Platzspitz

Platzspitz, officially Platzpromenade, is a park in District 1 of the city of Zurich, Switzerland. It is located next to the Swiss National Museum (Landesmuseum) and Central Station and bound by the rivers Sihl to the west and Limmat to the east. The confluence of these rivers lies just north of the park.

Several tall Platanus trees grow in the park, which are some of Zurich's oldest trees. The park also features a statue of the Swiss poet Salomon Gessner and a gazebo. At Platzspitz's northern end, two bridges link the park with the neighbouring quarters and the Dynamo youth center. The park shares a landing stage with the Landesmuseum, served by the ZSG Limmat river cruise.
