Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our house is in the middle of the old part of the village and surrounded by other nice old buildings. The streets are small and not often frequented, a waterwheel turns its rounds and behind the garden a waterfall is lapping. Many families (and cats) live in the neighborhood. Within walking distance are a grocery store, organic food shop, a bakery, a butcher shop, a pharmacy and restaurants. The library is very near and also two playgrounds. Whithin spitting distance there is a wonderfull old public park. In about 4 minutes by walking you will reach the trainstation to the next citys (Winterthur 12 minutes, Schaffhausen 20 minutes, Zürich 35-45 minutes). For walking or jogging you can enjoy the river Thur. In summertime it is possible to take a bath there or you go to the outdoorpool of the village.
