Minus one star for tourist confusion. I guess they assume that everyone knows what all the numbers & symbols mean. Good luck figuring where to stand. Like other large cities, make a beeline to your seat. Behaviors you will receive scorn for: man spreading, piling your stuff on the seat next to you, otherwise hogging the empty seat.

My son LOVED the water play area and it occupied well over an hour. They also have an amazing ride-on train that you can sit in and it will take you winding around a large area of the park! My little guy kept saying, "more! more!" and cried when we ran out of tickets. I mean, I wanted to go again too but there was more to see and explore here! We also ate a delicious lunch here - omg rösti! My fav Swiss food! The restaurant had ample choices and was really, really excellent. I was just in awe of the sheer beauty of this place.
