Basel
If everyday life makes you tired, head to the city of Basel with its rich history, art and culture and charming atmosphere. Basel is a metropolitan city in the northwest of Switzerland, located on the Rhine river near the border of France and Germany. This is the place with the largest concentration of museums in the country. The lovely Munster Church is made of red sandstone with a multicolored tiled roof. There is a lot of green space, including the famous zoo in the city center. Switzerland's largest Roman monument, Augusta Raurica, are an easy day trip east. Visit Basel in December or January if you want to experience the chilly weather and visit the beautiful Christmas market. If you want to escape the heat then visit in May and June.
Basel in September is the most beautiful. The weather is pleasant at this time and the city is not too crowded. From this point on, you can enjoy autumn colors with falling yellow leaves, windy and cool weather and not too wet. If you come here in the summer, you will be able to witness the city's famous art exhibitions taking place. You will experience traditional culture and join your partner in creating handicrafts. On a sunny afternoon, take a romantic cruise on the Rhine Ferry, a traditional wooden train powered by a pulley system that has been in use for many years. Seeing the architecture of the old town from the water is impressive and offers a unique perspective on the city's development over time.
