This tiny Swiss cantonal capital near Basel pairs a cobbled-street Old Town with a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size, several historic churches, and scenic viewpoints in the surrounding countryside. The town sits on the water and serves as the administrative centre of Basel-Landschaft canton, with the broader region ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
