Basel Switzerland
Basel is a city in northwestern Switzerland on the river Rhine. Basel is Switzerland's third-most-populous city (after Zürich and Geneva) with about 175,000 inhabitants.
Located where the Swiss, French and German borders meet, Basel also has suburbs in France and Germany. In 2014, the Basel agglomeration was the third largest in Switzerland with a population of 537,100 in 74 municipalities in Switzerland and an additional 53 in neighboring countries (municipal count as of 2000).The official language of Basel is (the Swiss variety of Standard) German, but the main spoken language is the local variant of the Alemannic Swiss German dialect.
The city is known for its many internationally renowned museums, ranging from the Kunstmuseum, the first collection of art accessible to the public in Europe (1661) and the largest museum of art in the whole of Switzerland, to the Fondation Beyeler (located in Riehen). The University of Basel, founded in 1460, Switzerland's oldest university and the city's centuries long commitment to humanism, have made Basel a safe haven during times of political unrest in other parts of Europe to the likes of Erasmus of Rotterdam, the Holbein family, and more recently also to Hermann Hesse and Karl Jaspers.
Basel has been the seat of a Prince-Bishopric since the 11th century, and joined the Swiss Confederacy in 1501. The city has been a commercial hub and important cultural centre since the Renaissance, and has emerged as a centre for the chemical and pharmaceutical industry in the 20th century. In 1897, the city was chosen as the location for the first World Zionist Congress by Theodor Herzl, and all together the congress has taken place in Basel for ten times over a time span of 50 years, more than in any other city in the world. The city is also home to the worldwide seat of the Bank for International Settlements.
Today the city of Basel, together with two other Swiss cities Zürich and Geneva, is counted among the cities with the highest standards of living in the world.

#FLÜELI_RANFT
At the heart of #Switzerland, located between #Lucerne and #Interlaken and surrounded by rolling hills and graceful mountains, you find everything you ever dreamed of whether travelling alone, with a family or as a group. The village of Flüeli-Ranft presents a feast for the eyes and key to enjoyment for both your body and soul. Take a deep breath; yes, this is for real – and places do still exist where you can replenish resources in magnificent countryside, far from the hustle and bustle.
Follow the traces of the past, through the Flüeli-Ranft place of power and under the pergola to the historic renovated 3-star Superior Hotel Paxmontana, noted for its Jugendstil style of architecture.
The unique turn-of-the-century architecture is a delight. The Paxmontana offers a blend of Belle Epoque charm and contemporary comfort. It owes its romantic flair to the glorious views of the lake and mountains .
Hilton Garden Inn Zurich Limmattal l Hotel Review [4K]
This is a full tour of the Hilton Garden Inn Zurich Limmattal in Switzerland. In terms of location, the hotel is quite far away from the city centre but manageable to reach there within 30 min by train. So it's not that bad. The hotel itself is simple, nothing fancy as you would be expected from a Garden Inn standard but nothing bad about that. Service is great and all staffs are attentive and accommodative.
The room I got is room 417 (not quite sure about the room type but it was probably a deluxe king because it was located on the top floor). Size is okay for a couple. The room has everything I need. The bed is relatively comfy. The thing I liked is that it has a large window overlooking a field in front of the hotel which is quite nice even in winter. The only strange thing I experienced is that the bathroom doesn't provide the standard Crabtree & Evelyne amenities but rather has another brand in there. Breakfast is okay with plenty of selections but nothing special about it.
Overall, based on the price and Swiss standards, this hotel is a good choice if you would like to have a short stay in Zurich to explore the city centre but don't want to pay the premium price for the hotel price.

Top Attractions in Prague 2019, Charles Bridge, Prague Astronomical Clock, Prague, Old Town Square
Here's the video of my night visit to famous places in Prague which include Charles Bridge, Prague Astronomical Clock, Prague, Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square
According to Wiki -
Prague (/prɑːɡ/; Czech: Praha [ˈpraɦa] (About this soundlisten), German: Prag) is the capital and largest city in Czechia, the 14th largest city in the European Union[9] and the historical capital of Bohemia. Situated in the northwest of Czechia on the Vltava river, Prague is home to about 1.3 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of 2.6 million.[4] The city has a temperate climate, with warm summers and chilly winters.
Prague is a political, cultural and economic centre of central Europe complete with a rich history. Founded during the Romanesque and flourishing by the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque eras, Prague was the capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia and the main residence of several Holy Roman Emperors, most notably of Charles IV (r. 1346–1378).[10] It was an important city to the Habsburg Monarchy and its Austro-Hungarian Empire. The city played major roles in the Bohemian and Protestant Reformation, the Thirty Years' War and in 20th-century history as the capital of Czechoslovakia during both World Wars and the post-war Communist era.[11]
Prague is home to a number of well-known cultural attractions, many of which survived the violence and destruction of 20th-century Europe. Main attractions include Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square with the Prague astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín hill and Vyšehrad. Since 1992, the extensive historic centre of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
The city has more than ten major museums, along with numerous theatres, galleries, cinemas and other historical exhibits. An extensive modern public transportation system connects the city. It is home to a wide range of public and private schools, including Charles University in Prague, the oldest university in Central Europe.[12]
Prague is classified as an Alpha − global city according to GaWC studies[13] and ranked sixth in the Tripadvisor world list of best destinations in 2016.[14] In 2019, the city was ranked as 69th most liveable city in the world,[15] second in the former Eastern Bloc to Berlin. Its rich history makes it a popular tourist destination and as of 2017, the city receives more than 8.5 million international visitors annually. Prague is the fourth most visited European city after London, Paris and Rome.[16]
Prague astronomical clock according to Wiki -
The Orloj is mounted on the southern wall of Old Town Hall in the Old Town Square. The clock mechanism itself has three main components: the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints stand on either side of the clock; The Walk of the Apostles, a clockwork hourly show of figures of the Apostles and other moving sculptures—notably a figure of Death (represented by a skeleton) striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good operation is placed in jeopardy; a ghost, mounted on the clock, was supposed to nod its head in confirmation. According to the legend, the only hope was represented by a boy born on New Year's night.[3]
Old Town Prague according to Wiki -
The Old Town of Prague (Czech: Staré Město pražské) is a medieval settlement of Prague, Czech Republic. It was separated from the outside by a semi-circular moat and wall, connected to the Vltava river at both of its ends. The moat is now covered up by the streets (from north to south-west) Revoluční, Na Příkopě, and Národní—which remain the official boundary of the cadastral community of Old Town. It is now part of Prague 1.
Notable places in the Old Town include Old Town Square and Astronomical Clock. The Old Town is surrounded by the New Town of Prague. Across the river Vltava connected by the Charles Bridge is the Lesser Town of Prague (Czech: Malá Strana). The former Jewish Town (Josefov) is located in the northwest corner of Old Town heading towards the Vltava.
Wenceslas Square Wiki -
Wenceslas Square (Czech: About this soundVáclavské náměstí (help·info) [ˈvaːtslafskɛː ˈnaːmɲɛstiː], colloquially Václavák [ˈvaːtslavaːk]) is one of the main city squares and the centre of the business and cultural communities in the New Town of Prague, Czech Republic. Many historical events occurred there, and it is a traditional setting for demonstrations, celebrations, and other public gatherings. The square is named after Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia.
