Switzerland: Basler Fasnacht (Carnival in Basel)
Switzerland: Basler Fasnacht (Carnival in Basel)
Leave your false nose at home and forget the Wein, Weib und Gesang from the German carnival tradition: the Basler Fasnacht has its own rules. In Basel no singalongs and dancing, but Europe's most amazing manner to chase the winter away. 72 hours long. From the 2nd till the 4th of March 2009.

Carnival continues day and night for 72 hours in Basel. One of the great moments each day is just after sunset along the Rhine (Rhein). It's the fairy tale hour. Photo Paul Smit.
