The border monument gives a concrete destination to Basel's three-country geography. From the port-side setting, the Rhine is also visibly a working river, different from the historic central bridges. Choose this when the border location itself interests you; the trip takes you farther from the compact old-town sightseeing area than most city landmarks.
