Transcript:

Here’s a city that defies borders. Situated in Switzerland, Basel sits precisely at the point where Switzerland, France, and Germany meet. At this tri-point, the borders of these three nations converge right in the middle of the Rhine River.

Located in northwestern Switzerland, Basel is so close to both France and Germany that its borders practically extend into its neighboring suburbs. Residents of Basel can live in one country, work in another, and cross over to shop or dine in the third. Even Basel’s airport is shared, with separate exits leading directly into either Switzerland or France.

Although the borders technically exist, there’s no regular border check between the three countries, creating a seamless mix of culinary excellence, engineering precision, and financial stability.
