Discover Zurich from Above – by Helicopter
Taken from a helicopter, the shots by Marco Fumasoli are both thrilling and fascinating. In 1998, the filmmaker and entrepreneur started taking aerial shots for Swiss Television, showing landscapes, mountains, villages, and cities. Since then, he and his team have filmed the whole of Switzerland. There are many enchanting shots of Zurich, too. You can discover this city from an unusual perspective, flying over it like a bird. A cinematic experience that captivates locals as well as those from further afield.
