Basel
Basel City
Basel lies in the heart of Europe bordered by the Vosges in Alsace, France, Germany's black forest and the Swiss Jura. Best described as a unique and fascinating city with the river Rhine meandering right through the centre.
On the banks of the river - or as the locals like to call it...The 'Riviera' Basle is a perfect setting for a relaxing stroll along the river. Stop for a leisurely lunch or take a boat trip which will allow you to sit back and enjoy the views and stunning architecture that Basel has to offer.
In the old town, one of Europe's best preserved, you will find buildings which date back to the 15th century contrasting with modern works of internationally renowned architects. The old town is as beautiful as any other in Europe.
There are plenty of shopping opportunities to suit all tastes along with many bars, restaurants and for those who are looking for some lively night life there are plenty of clubs to choose from! It is a great place for a city break for a few days.
