The largest town in the southern Netherlands (and the fifth largest in the country), Eindhoven isn`t one that tourists usually think of, but it offers a number of attractions and enjoyable things to do. Because of its connections with electronics giant Philips (a monument near the station is dedicated to the company founder`s son), Eindhoven is known as `Lichtstad` - the City of Light - and it`s one of the country`s industrial powerhouses. The charm and cosiness of Brabant combined with a modern, innovative city... that is Eindhoven in a nutshell. It features new, futuristic designs that make a valuable contribution to our society, such as the all-solar electric vehicle Lightyear One and the wooden Biobasecamp, a pavilion where construction with wood has been elevated to a sustainable art form.
