Location

Next to Zeughausstrasse in Winterthur.

Participants

Chris_47_8

Plans

Go there by bus in the afternoon.

Expedition

So this hash was very conveniently located in the middle of Winterthur on a sunny sunday afternoon. I went there by bus and found the place immediately. On the way there, i found a QR code on a sign next to a buidling. I didn't check it yet, might be an art project. The hash itself was right next to a street on a meadow. No fence or anything there, so super easy to reach. I checked to coordinates and took some photos, there was nothing nearby that's worth to be mentioned. On the way back i found a nice street sign saying Palm Street, something which is, i would say, quite uncommon in Switzerland. It also indicated the way to Villa Flora, which is an art museum, Technorama, which is a science and technology museum for kids, and the Fotomuseum. Winterthur is a museum city. Oh and it also had a clock on it, because we're in Switzerland. Plus: 2 to the 5!
