About Basel Fasnacht: Known as the "three most beautiful days" (die drey scheenschte Dääg), Basel's carnival is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage event. It is unique for its strict separation between participants (active) and spectators, its satirical themes, and the haunting sounds of piccolo and drums.
