Photos: 1. A man swimming in the Rhine River 2. People walking up the river so they can swim back down 3. More people walking up the river As in Bern, where the local people like to go swimming in the Aare River, people in Basel like to go swimming in the Rhine. Since the current is strong, there is only one way to swim, namely downstream, so people walk upstream along the riverbank and then find a place to get into the water and swim or float back down. Though the Aare is said to be faster and colder, the Rhine is also a dangerous river, so swimming in it is only for very strong and experienced swimmers, who nearly always do it in groups.

 Fan Zone Basel by Nemorino The European Football Championships were just coming to an end when I was in Basel in the summer of 2008, and the "Fan Zone" bleachers in the city center were still in place. This was where people could come to watch the games together on large screens, as a substitute for not being in the stadium itself. The championships that year were held in two countries, Austria and Switzerland. Each country provided four venues. In Austria, the venues were Vienna, Klagenfurt, Salzburg and Innsbruck, and in Switzerland they were Basel, Bern, Geneva and Zürich. Leave a Comment Theme: Sports Watching
