Often overlooked, this smallish town (170'000 people) has big city attractions and a lot of beautiful nooks and crannies.

The gateway to Switzerland many know only from the average or passing. There are a number of reasons, at least stop by. Since Basle (170 000 Ew.) Is a university has, incidentally, the oldest in Switzerland, there are many young people who dominate the cityscape. This is particularly in the old town with its staircase and the street Spalentor yet picturesque medieval.

I stayed with a friend in switzerland for 2 weeks. she lived in bubendorf. almost every night we'd take a train to basel, which i suggest trying to get a pass. i grew to love the city. it was different than those where i live in Michigan in the U.S. you didnt have to drive everywhere to get places, you could take trams or walk which was nice and offered you the chance to rreally see the city and the people in it. I went clubbing one night and for an 18 year old the whole no drinnking age thing completely made the clubbing experience. it was so much fun just to dance to music i didnt understand and go crazy around people i'd never see again. I highly suggest one make a stop and spend a night or two in Basel. take a walk around the city. go to a soccer game. shop at stores you've never heard of. sit on the steps on the rhine at night. get drunk before going clubbing. take a tram. only go to McDonalds and the movies on a night when you feel like splurging. laugh. enjoy the swiss subculture.
