Netherlands

About Netherlands
The Netherlands are known for the extremely flat landscape. A large area of the country is below sea level. Being surrounded by the water resulted in Windmills, Dykes and the Technical miracle called the Delta Water Works. The Dutch are the tallest people in the world and known to be very "open". Anything is possible. The Netherlands are very crowded and multi-cultural. Most Dutch speak multiple languages and ride a bicycle.

France

About France
France is "La Grand Nation", Land of wine, Champagne, cheese and "joie de vivre". The whole country is interesting for tourists, whether it is the capital Paris with Eifeltower and Louvre, the Cote d´Azur and Mediteranean, the Provence or the Atlantic coastal areas. And for the sports-minded there is of course the Tour De France in July.

Top Destinations in the Netherlands, Holland.

Below are our most visited cities, destinations and national parks in the Netherlands. Click on the city for more details of the destination.

Amsterdam

Amsterdam

Amsterdam is capital of The Netherlands and world-famous for a) the Canals b) the Museums and c) the Coffee Shops and similar business. The International atmosphere makes it unique place in the world. A must-do is a boat tour through the canals with 17th century houses and house boats as well as a stroll through the red-light district.

Rotterdam

Rotterdam

Rotterdam is Europe's largest harbour and the 2nd largest city of The Netherlands. It is also known for modern architecture like the cube-houses and new market hall.

Edam-Volendam

Edam-Volendam

Just North of Amsterdam is this community of two former fishermen villages. Volendam is best known for traditional farmer's clothing ('dracht') and eel. Edam, part of the same community, is world-famous for... cheese! Also nearby: Marken!

The Hague

The Hague

The Hague is home of the Dutch Government, but not the nation´s capital... The royal family lives nearby as do many other ´rich and famous´. Do visit the center with the old government buildings (Binnenhuis"), the Palace of Justice and the beach of Scheveningen where you should eat ´raw hering´.

Delft

Delft

Delft is famous for two things in particular: the blue pottery and the renowned University of Technology. It is a popular city for tourists because of its canals, old buildings and international flair.

Kinderdijk

Kinderdijk

The windmills of Kinderdijk (near the city of Alblasserdam) are world-famous. Standing in the middle you may count 20 or so and - though no more needed to save the Netherlands - all still functional!
