Description
Situated on the northwest corner of continental Europe and known for it's flat landscape of canals, tulip fields, windmills and cycling routes, the Netherlands is very much a European country with a window to the world. It is famously home to the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Canalside mansions and works of art from the city's 17th-century "Golden Age." Whether you like to enjoy beautiful nature reserves, relax on one of the country’s many beaches or embrace the arts and culture of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, or Tilburg, the Netherlands has something for all.
