Empty.

Basel has the reputation to host the most beautiful Christmas market in Switzerland, it is all over the town in every squares and streets , but this year ...nothing, another thing I miss ...
This has been taken in Saturday afternoon , it’s usually crowded.
Our shops are still open but I’m happy to see that people are respecting the covid rules.

Still a lovely scene!

Hopefully as people abide by the rules set out for their area the virus will die out. Vaccines are starting to be given in my state, but I'm a bit far down on the list to get one.

J'aime cette vue de la ville. Basel a l'air d'être très pittoresque.

Empty, but still beautiful

Hopefully, the shops and businesses can survive until the next market.

Love that sky... such a sad story about the market. Hopefully next year will be better.

[Pat]

How sad but it's a lovely shot all the same. A reminder to look back on of this difficult year.

[Merrelyn]

How sad not to have Christmas markets, but much better to be safe.

[Monique]

Hopefully next year....

[haskar]

Very sad! But beautiful scene and architecture.

[Phil Howcroft]

so sad Corrine, all the street events that Nottingham hosts throughout the year (and there are many) have all been cancelled. Excellent reportage photo

[sheri]

I can imagine what it must be like in such an expansive plaza. Hopefully next year we can see.

The ominous sky adds to the mood of this capture - well done.

So sad, my husband and I got to see the Christmas market in Basel a few years ago. Seeing the Christmas markets was one of the first things on my "bucket list" when I first retired and had time to travel. We loved visiting the ones in Switzerland, Germany, and France!
