Netherlands Travel guide
Netherlands : Michelin's recommendations
The Dutch have made a garden out of this low-lying country, struggling obstinately against the water by building a patchwork of dykes, canals, polders, and clumps of trees. Now they are lovingly renovating their mills, ancient homes and old warehouses, the success symbols of a nation that had its hour of glory in the days of the Hanseatic League.
Although the charming city of Amsterdam boasts a high concentration of cultural attractions, Rotterdam was the testing ground for modern architecture and urban planning in recent decades, a topic that might have given pause to Renaissance humanist Erasmus, author of In Praise of Folly! Maastricht and The Hague are charming little cities whose reputation as a place for European institutions is due to their being the headquarters for the International Criminal Court and International Court of Justice.
Within this setting they have created another wonderful garden: Hoge Veluwe National Park, a precious biosphere reserve where cyclists and pedestrians can also explore amazing modern paintings and sculptures both indoors and outdoors at the Kröller-Müller Museum. All of which goes to show that the Netherlands has a great deal more to offer than just tulip fields, cheeses, bicycles and coffee shops.
