Netherlands at a glance
January 29, 2010 / posted in category : europe, netherland
Holland is one of the most attractive in Europe, although we tend to confuse the country with Amsterdam. Almost all relate Netherlands with its capital, and forget about many other beautiful spots facing the country.
Amsterdam is without doubt his most tourist destination. A very modern and cosmopolitan city with a liberal atmosphere and very lively. The best example of modernism and liberalism are the coffeeshops. But do not be limited to these sites to notice that Holland has a whole different mentality, and that is really funny to sit in the main square, Plaza Damm and observe those who go there. Nationalities from all sides: from Europe, America, Asia .. everyone as equal.
In Amsterdam we have a great cultural route mainly based on its museums, like the Rikjsmuseum, or museums of Van Gogh and Rembrandt, or its musical shows. A tourist route is essentially based on the route of their channels, because it is a unique city, divided into concentric circles separated from each other by canals, and some amazing houses, without form or order. It seems as though no architect had worked on them, as if the owner of Hueber made with his own hands: dunks, inclined, multicolored …
Sumémosle it the fabulous Vondelpark, a special park where they enjoy a nice day of rest, and where they can go with the bikes (although the city’s property because the bike can be carried by either side of the city), or the well-known Red Light District and we have quite a mixture, a great place to vacation.
Amsterdam for his size is a city that can do fairly well on a weekend or three days. It is very manageable, but even so, we want to spend more day, we can always find other places to visit in the rest of Holland.
Marken and Volendam and just outside the Netherlands, is the perfect image of what this country; channels, extensive green prasad, milk cows and windmills.
Delft, a small town but with a special charm, especially its central plaza, this being a city famous for its blue pottery.
Rotterdam, the city example of modernism, for many of its buildings, such as cube houses, famous for its form in the world, and its harbor, one of the most important in Europe.
Madurodam, more than a city is like a small amusement park, for in it are all European countries represented in miniature through its main monuments.
We could cite many other places, like The Hague, Adminitrative capital and seat of the Tribunal. As Zaanse Schans, famous for its windmills.
And of course, assist inany of the sites we have said, the production of cheeses in a cheese factory, or enter into a mill to see it working, or going to a clog factory.
