This is the wonderful Rhin riverbank at Basel. The river runs with power through the beautiful and peaceful city of Basel. Walking this riverbanks is a very relaxing and recommendable experience.
We can also see the legendary hotel "Les Trois Rois".
The first official record of the "Three Kings" as a guest house dates back to 1681; in 1844, it was completely rebuilt as a grand hotel. The hotel has a wealth of history. On the list of famous personalities who have lodged at the Grandhotel Les Trois Rois you will find names such as Emperor Joseph II., Napoleon Bonaparte, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Hans Christian Andersen, Theodor Herzl und many other famous personalities.

Sergio,
Nice use of the rule of thirds here with 3 distinctive sections bottom to top. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail. The marker in the river shows the power of the current nicely. You have captured a great sky which provides a nice backdrop for the shot.
TFS,
Asa
