Compared to polish cities too it’s not that small.
That was my point, what I saw looked like a small, provincial polish city with an old town, tourists, relaxing people, etc.
I really don’t understand where your “Basel is a small provincial town” impression is rooted.
I literally explained that in my last comment. I thought it was small, provincial city, full of medium sized buildings, full of tourists, that was so close to neighboring cities they shared trams. I spent a month there. I swam down the river, was forced to see removed street, had a public grill next to the river, went to see some overpriced art festival, stuff like that.
I remember that after we took a tram to German suburbs (or neighbouring city) there was a lot of police checking out Arabs and their documents.
Thank you though for the population size information. Does it take into consideration metropolitan area across three countries or only the Swiss part? I’m not arguing here, just curious.
