Holland 2000 [Lingua Inglese] - Brossura

Bulbfields in bloom, the buzz of Amsterdam, the gritty port life of Rotterdam and the stately elegance of The Hague are only the beginning of the journey of discovery led by Rodney Bolt in his brand new Cadogan guide to this small, accessible and fascinating country. From the untamed islands of north Friesland to the lively student towns of Leiden and Maastricht, this guide lifts the lid on Dutch cuisine, surprises you with quirky little museum collections, and finally relaxes you into the complex and comforting state of gezelligheid, the warm conviviality that suffuses Dutch culture. This insightful guide takes you on entertaining explorations of china, spies and the hidden history of cheese. It has reliable and discerning listings of the bleakest beaches and the cosiest cafes and provides sound, practical advice about markets, mud-wading and scenic touring routes.
