Stylish and ornate, the atmosphere of Benelux cities holds the spirit of another age. Walk pathways between Dutch and Flemish houses that rise narrowly from the streets. Discover the balance modern influence holds for the past as belfries, old churches, cathedrals, and béguinages stand beside contemporary art and shopping. Decompress and relax in verdant green expanses when you’ve had your fill of urban fun. Explore the North Sea coast by bicycle or tram and roll through seaside towns framed between lonely sand dunes. Discover what each beautiful and historic country offers to the region beyond just a syllable from each of their names.
