SPECIAL THEME: FOCUS ON BASEL - THE CITY'S HIGHLIGHTS OF 2019

Get acquainted with Switzerland’s culture capital Situated on the Rhine River in north-west Switzerland, Basel borders France and Germany and is popular with tourists for many reasons. Not only does Basel impress with a gorgeous, medieval old town that is dominated by the 16th-century, red-sandstone town hall, it also offers world-class museums and other cultural institutions, shopping opportunities, restaurants and more.
