Basel Vacation Guide
Basel is the third most populous city in Switzerland. It is located in northwestern Switzerland, bordering both Germany and France. Thus, it's an important transportation hub, housing three railway stations (Swiss, German and France) within the city borders. Public transportation is extensive both for city routes and the surrounding suburbs.
Due to the university, which is the oldest one in Switzerland, the population is quite young. It's spread over the whole city as well as a remarkable number of buildings designed by famous architects.
Basel is also famous for its old town, which has kept its medieval charm, the rhine where one can go swimming in summer and its museums . The people from Basel are proud of their city and culture, so that they even decided by a referendum to purchase two Picassos for the art museum
Everyone loves the local soccer team, FC Basel
