Amsterdam
Easygoing, liberal Amsterdam is 'different.' Its citizens, bubbling along happily in their multiracial melting pot, are not so easily poured into the restrictive molds of trade and industry. More important, you can enjoy Amsterdam, its culture, history, and beauty, without stretching the limits of your credit cards. Few skyscrapers mar the clarity of the sky, and the populace mostly walks or bikes from place to place. The historic center recalls Amsterdam's Golden Age as the command post of a vast trading network and colonial empire, when wealthy merchants constructed gabled residences along neatly laid-out canals.
Visit Dam Square, Anne Frank House, Bloemenmarkt, Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Canal Belt, Jordaan, Red Light District and so much more! -
Antwerp
Antwerp is a small city, but it's full of charm, culture and sophistication. The Diamond Capital of the World, it is also the city of Rubens, as well as Belgium's primary seaport. If you enjoy engaging museums and galleries, excellent gastronomy, street art and sculptures, alongside sipping some of Belgium's finest beers in trendy bars and old school cafes, then Antwerp is the city for you.
Visit the Grand Place (Grote Markt), Cathedral of Our Lady, Antwerp Zoo, Chocolate Nation, Museum aan de Stroom (MAS), Rubens' House (Rubenshuis), Red Star Line Museum, and so much more! -
Ghent
The magnificent old city of Ghent was one of the biggest cities in Western Europe at the end of the Middle Ages, renowned for its textile industry. Much of the city's medieval architecture remains intact and is remarkably well preserved. Interesting highlights are the Saint Bavo Cathedral with the Ghent Altarpiece, the belfry, the Gravensteen castle, and the splendid architecture along the old Graslei harbor. The city of Ghent also houses three beguinages, recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites, and numerous churches, among which the Saint-Jacobs church and the Saint-Nicolas Church are the most beautiful examples.
Visit the Cathedral of St. Bavo, Gravensteen Castle, The Belfry, Graslei, Korenmarkt, Saint Michael's Church and Sint-Michielsbrug, Korenlei Canal, Museum of Fine Arts, Museum of Ghent, Old Market Area, Vismarkt and Kraanlei, Ruins of Sint-Baafsabdij, and so much more! -
Rotterdam
Europe's largest and busiest port, Rotterdam is also the most modern city in The Netherlands. The symbol of the city is the Euromast Space Tower at a height of 605 feet, from which you have an excellent view over the city. One of Rotterdam's main attractions is Diergaarde Blijdorp, the extensive zoo that includes the impressive Oceanium, where visitors can walk through the huge shark tunnel surrounded by sharks and giant tortoises. Another place worth visiting is the Boymans-van-Beuningen Museum displaying a beautiful collection of paintings, sculpture and design.
Visit the colorful Markthal, Erasmus Bridge, Cube Houses, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, the SS Rotterdam and so much more! -
