The canton of Schaffhausen
The canton of Schaffhausen, a small Swiss territory surrounded by the vast Germany. The capital of the canton of the same name - easy to remember! - The town of Schaffhausen, a very nice town with its richly decorated facades.
In Büsingen, we are still in the canton of Schaffhausen and yet in Germany. It is a foreign enclave in Switzerland, where laws, money and people are German ... amazing!
Impossible to leave Schaffhausen without visiting the Rhine Falls, the largest falls in Europe. Here, the Rhine flows from a height of 25 meters in a deafening din.
