You are given a choice to visit either Basel or Zurich. You are thinking, which city to pick? Well, both. Their harmonious tandem is just what you need!

For example, Zurich is a place where time has stood still for long, and cozy streets like Augustinergasse demonstrate this very well. Take a walk through the churches of Fraumunster, St. Peter, and the Cathedral and fall in love with the atmospheric chronicle of Zurich! Basel’s old town surprises just as much, at least with its colorful and imposing Gothic town hall with the solemn clock of Master Wilhelm, so you can’t take your eyes off!

The main highlight of Basel is its museums, more than one per square kilometer, can you imagine? Take a look at the paper mill museum and share the pleasure of painstaking craftsmanship, a magical toy museum for all ages, an antiquity museum, and an art museum: Van Gogh, Picasso, Dali, Ernst… Your aesthetic bliss. The Zurich Kunsthaus is very similar to the one in Basel. What is the difference? It is on you to spot it! But we should not forget about the National Museum of Zurich, its grandeur in the first place. Such a manor only exists in movies, here — in reality!

After such a busy promenade, you want to relax. Where to go? For instance, to the Foundation Beyeler in Basel, unite with nature, and admire works of art. Or to the University Gardens of Zurich, a tropical oasis in the midst of monoliths, which guarantees your good mood!
