Why visit Basel?

Basel, a scenic town in northwestern Switzerland, is located on the banks of the Rhine. It's known for its world-class museums, well-preserved Old Town and vibrant arts and cultural scene.

Explore Basel Minster, a Gothic cathedral adorned with stunning stained-glass windows, and admire the tranquil cloister garden. Stroll along the banks of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Rhine and take in the sights of the city's picturesque bridges and riverside cafés.

Immerse yourself in Basel's cultural offerings, and be sure to head to a concert, exhibition or theatrical performance at one of the city's many museums and theatres. Enjoy Basel's culinary delights, and sample traditional Swiss dishes such as raclette – melted cheese served with potato rösti – along with local wines.

Basel is located right on the border with Germany's beautiful mountain area of the Black Forest and France's region of Alsace, which also makes it a great starting point for visiting the exciting surrounding area and experiencing three countries in one.
