Straddling the Rhine lies the stunning, intriguing city of Basel, Switzerland. Like many European cities its diverse and ancient architecture are a delight to the eye. While visitors often pass through populous Zurich and Geneva, Basel is a must-see if you plan to pass through Switzerland.
As befitting Switzerland’s unofficial status as a diplomatically neutral location, Basel was the location for several treaties over the centuries that ended wars in Europe. Visitors will love the Basel Zoo, both the oldest and largest in Switzerland. And the 9th Century Basel Minster is a classic example of Gothic architecture and a place for quiet contemplation.
The diversity of historical artifacts and architecture combined with its relatively small population make it a prime location for photography. You won’t have to jump through hoops to avoid crowds and get intimate captures in Basel. Working with a professional photographer in Basel will ensure you’ll get just the right capture on your trip.
