Ho ho ho everyone 🎅!
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” 🎶 Don’t you think ? This is why we want to invite you to the last but not least city trip of the semester for a day filled with Christmas spirit ! So hop on a train 🚃 and travel with us to Basel whose Christmas Market was voted the best in Europe in 2021 🤩!
Multitude of tiny rustic wooden chalets offering warming drinks, local and seasonal culinary delights, Christmas decorations and gift ideas, artisanal goods and more are waiting for you ! So let’s all inhale the smell of the mulled wine (or hot chocolate ☕), dive into the sea of lights, and let ourselves be delighted by the very special charm of the Christmas celebrations 🎉.
We will start our journey by strolling around in Basel’s beautiful and festively decorated historical center and enjoying the view over the Rhine, which we will cross by a little boat tour 🚤 . Then, we cannot miss the opportunity to visit (and warm ourselves up in) the Kunstmuseum 🖼️, Switzerland’s biggest and most important art museum that houses the oldest public art collection in the world ! Finally, we will end the day with its most exciting part : The Christmas Market 🎄🧑🎄🎁.
So if you want to boost your Christmas mood, increase your art knowledge and get to see a new piece of Switzerland, sign up quickly for this event ! The fairy tale is about to begin ✨.
