Tourists have named a city where you can visit three countries in one day

According to experts, it is possible to visit three countries in this city in less than 10 minutes.

In Switzerland, there is a city that allows tourists to visit three different countries in one day. This is Basel, a port city on the Rhine River and a place where the borders of Germany, France, and Switzerland meet. This is reported by Mirror.

In particular, tourists are advised to visit the Dreiländereck monument, which marks the triangle where all three borders meet, and the popular observation deck where you can take photos of all three countries.

In addition, there is a place in Basel where you can walk around and visit all three countries in less than 10 minutes.

“The monumental structure shows the intersection of the borders of three countries, namely France, Switzerland, and Germany. Walking around the monument, you symbolically step into the territory of all three countries. There is also a beautiful view of the river,” said one of the Tripadvisor visitors.

The easiest and most popular way to explore this area is by taking a boat tour.

“It is worth noting that some vacationers went in search of Dreiländereck, but they were unable to find clear signs, so if you plan to visit this place, make sure you have a clear map and plan before you go,” the article advised.

The Mirror emphasized that Basel is not the only place in Europe where you can stand in one place and be in several countries at the same time. In particular, Barle is a small town that often attracts tourists and has two municipalities that are intertwined with each other.

“However, this also means that the city has two town halls, post offices, and police stations, making it an amazing place to visit for those who enjoy exploring new routes!”, the publication advises.
