Its basically abit like a folder, if you download something, a zip file will contain one or more files.
zip files, like any files can be safe or unsafe, its easier to hide a virus in a zip file, but doesnt necessarily mean there will be viruses in there.
install either winzip or winrar to open the contents.

The ZIP file format is a data compression and archival format. A ZIP file contains one or more files that have been compressed, to reduce their file size, or stored as-is. A number of compression algorithms are permitted in zip files but as of 2008 only DEFLATE is widely used and supported.
it is like downloading any other file from the web ,, it could be safe and it could be not
