The Rhine River in Basel, Switzerland


Quoting from Wikipedia: Rhine:
The Rhine (Latin: Rhenus, Romansh: Rein, German: Rhein, French: le Rhin,[1] Italian: Reno, Dutch: Rijn) is one of the major European rivers, which has its sources in Switzerland and flows in a mostly northerly direction through Germany and the Netherlands, emptying into the North Sea. The river begins in the Swiss canton of Graubünden in the southeastern Swiss Alps, forms part of the Swiss-Liechtenstein, Swiss-Austrian, Swiss-German and then the Franco-German border, then flows through the German Rhineland and the Netherlands and eventually empties into the North Sea.
We spent some time at this lovely overlook above the river.
