Culture & leisure
23 Sep 2010
Holland is more varied than you might expect. There is plenty to see, whether you’re strolling through town, making a boat trip on the canals or lakes, lazing on the beach or walking in the woods and dunes.
There is no shortage of entertainment either. Major international stars regularly play at Dutch stadiums and other smaller venues. Parkpop (in The Hague in June) is one of the largest free pop festivals in Europe.
Musicals and theatre are also very popular. With over 1,000 museums there is a lot to discover. And don’t be surprised to see people dressed in orange and partying in the street on Queen’s Day or when the national football team has a game.
