Gouda Cheese Market
Highlight of Gouda, Self-GuidedYou Gotta Go to Gouda for Good Cheese
The Gouda Cheese market is a spectacular and historic scene, held every Thursday morning from early April to late August from 10am to 1pm. Farmers negotiate over the price with the traders in front of the Waag (the Weighing House). Deals are still sealed with a handshake, as it has been for centuries. The cheeses are delivered to and from the market on wagonettes and weighed after the sale in the monumental Goudse Waag building. On several dates during the holidays there is also a Gouda children’s cheese market. If after the cheese market you explore the rich history of the city, you will certainly have a chance to try its most famous product.

Gouda Town Hall Stadhuis
Highlight of Gouda, Self-GuidedVisit this Dramatic Example of Gothic Architecture
The spectacular Gouda town hall or Stadhuis is a wonderfully elegant Gothic edifice dating from 1450 with soaring stonework, appealingly spiky towers and winsome dormer windows painted red. If the doors are open (entrance fee 2.50 EUR), you can visit the lovely wedding hall, the mayor's office and the council chamber. Statues of Burgundian counts and countesses decorate the building's facade and on its east side is the jolliest of carillons, where tiny figures perform an elaborate little ritual every half-hour. The leading figure is Floris V, who granted Gouda is town charter in 1272.

The church's interior features a carved pulpit, an ornate organ, and beautiful stained glass windows. The church has indirectly given Zwolle's inhabitants their nickname, Blauwvingers (Bluefingers). For once, a Dutch story that doesn't reward frugality.

Highlight of Edam, Volendam and, Marken Self-GuidedA Swell Tower and Church in Zwolle
The Grote Kerk (St. Michael's Church) in Zwolle, notable for its late Gothic architecture, dates back to the 15th century. Though its tower was aimed to outdo Utrecht's Dom Tower, it remains unfinished thanks to a series of lightning strikes. The church's interior features a carved pulpit, an ornate organ, and beautiful stained glass windows. The church has indirectly given Zwolle's inhabitants their nickname, Blauwvingers (Bluefingers). For once, a Dutch story that doesn't reward frugality.

The banks of the Außenalster, or Outer Lake, are the perfect spot for a gentle stroll at any time of the year. During the summer, make like a real Hamburger and take to the placid water by boat; there plenty of lakeside rental sites. In cold winters, you can follow the Hamburgers out onto the ice. The lakeshore is also populated by a number of restaurants and cafes; if you want to go fully native, try the beer garden at the Alsterperle on the eastern side of the lake, though the best food is at either Alster Cliff or Portonovo. But, whatever you do, don't eat the Hamburgers, they're generally quite pleasant people.

Copenhagen is a port city in Scandinavia full of artsy museums, windswept castles, and hip restaurants. The city has a relaxed, homey feel. Bicycles zip in and out of leafy boulevards, past bakeries, hotdog stands, and cool cafes. People swim year-round in the pristine waters of the harbor that encircles Copenhagen like a moat around a fortress. Descended from Vikings, Danish people have a familial kinship with the sea. Day trips by train up the spectacular Øresund coast showcase the cobalt blue ocean and sweeping views across to Sweden. A few years ago, Copenhagen was birthplace to a gastronomic revolution known as the New Nordic cuisine. People now come from all over the world to dine in Copenhagen on dishes that speak to the contemporary Danish mentality; clean, simple, and appreciative of all seasons. The quality of food and life in Copenhagen is very high. Maybe it’s the sea air or the Danish eye for design, but people just seem happier in Copenhagen. After spending a day or two here, trying a Smørrebrød sandwich and maybe some aquavit schnapps, you’re bound to take some happiness away with you.

The magic of Paris is undeniable. This is the most romantic destination in Europe, and surely the number one bucket list destination of all time. If you want to say you've traveled, you have to visit Paris at least once. Along with classic must-sees like the Eiffel Tower and the Sacre-Coeur, there is so much to see and do in Paris that it helps to narrow it down by interest. Fashion and shopping enthusiast? Look no further than the Galeries Lafayette, Avenue des Champs-Élysées, or the Marais. Art aficionado? Once you're done with the Louvre, make a start on the Musée d'Orsay. History buffs won't be able to walk a block without uncovering a monument to Napoleon or Louis XIV. If you visit Paris with a foodie, be warned — you'll gaze in a lot of patisserie windows, and sample your weight in croissants. Because Paris always has so much on offer, it never grows old. At dusk, as you stroll the wide boulevards past Haussmann apartment buildings and sharply dressed Parisians, or gaze down at the city from the hill at Montmarte, you might find yourself saying 'Paris Je t' aime'. This is, after all, the City of Love.

London is a city where centuries of royal history, cultural heritage, and cosmopolitan life come together to create a thrilling travel experience. At its core stand iconic landmarks like Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of London, each telling tales of monarchs, revolutions, and traditions that have shaped the nation. Stroll along the River Thames, past the grandeur of Parliament and the London Eye, and dive into the buzz of neighborhoods like Covent Garden, Soho, and Chinatown—each brimming with character, cuisine, and charm. From the stately Mall leading to Buckingham Palace to the vibrant energy of Piccadilly Circus, London is a city of contrasts where old and new exist in vivid harmony. Culinary adventures await across its boroughs, from refined afternoon teas to global street food and traditional pub fare. Whether you’re catching a play in the West End, exploring world-class museums, or unwinding in one of its royal parks, London invites you to discover something extraordinary at every turn.

It feels as though everything in Brussels is tinted with gold. From the gilded rooftops of the old houses on the Grand Palace to the foil-wrapped bonbons piled in chocolatier windows, Brussels seems to sparkle and wink at you around every corner. Aside from the lustrous architecture and Trappist ales, this shiny city is probably still best known for its iconic street food options: salty, golden fries, and fluffy, honey-colored waffles. While a major political center, home of the EU and NATO, don’t be fooled by Brussels stern ‘Eurocratic’ facade. Brussels revels in cheeky humor and mischief. So much so, Brussel’s beloved mascot, the ‘Manneken Pis’, is a statue of a small child urinating into a fountain. The city takes great pleasure in dressing this statue in festive-themed costumes. It’s no surprise that the artist Magritte, one of the great visual tricksters of the 20th century, called Brussels home. After a few days exploring the city, and taking in its sights and scenes, you’re sure to come away smiling.

A waterside metropolis with a low-key vibe, a visit to Amsterdam is as fun and freewheeling as a fixed-gear bicycle. This is the city where you can let it all go. The streets of Amsterdam chime with bicycle bells and the laughter of people making their way between bars. Yellow wheels of cheese line shop windows, and in springtime, market stalls are abundant with the famous Dutch tulips. Younger than other cities in the Netherlands, Amsterdam sprang to life in the 17th century, when it became flush with trade from the Dutch colonies. From the gable tipped houses standing shoulder-to-shoulder on the canals to the Rembrandt paintings hanging on the walls of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam is strewn with relics from the Dutch Golden Age. Whether you rent a bicycle, float down a canal, or just sip on an amber-colored lager and watch the world go by, Amsterdam makes a lasting impression from start to finish.

Compared to other German cities, Hamburg has a moody, nautical charisma all of its own. Despite being battered throughout history by floods, fires, and bombs, Hamburg has always held its head up high. Resilience is in the air in Hamburg, along with the briny smell of the North Sea. In recent years Hamburg has garnered a reputation for commerce and nightlife. Frequent travelers whisper that Hamburg is Germany’s ‘undiscovered’ city, the place to go for a little business and a lot of fun. Known as Germany’s ‘gateway to the world’, ships dock in Hamburg as they haul cargo up and down the Elbe River. The city thrives as Germany’s primary seaport and has been a center of trade since the middle ages. Its affluence shows in the 19th-century brick warehouses, flourishing restaurant scene, and recently constructed Elbphilharmonie concert hall, which floats majestically in the harbor, part ship and part island. Hamburg is a city for those who like to live large - in a cultured, German kind of way. Attend a performance at the orchestra, cruise on a boat around the Außenalster Lake, or have a night on the Reeperbahn, the Vegas-like strip where the Beatles once performed. Whatever you do in the city, Hamburg will make you look twice and see Germany from a totally different point of view.

Copenhagen is a port city in Scandinavia full of artsy museums, windswept castles, and hip restaurants. The city has a relaxed, homey feel. Bicycles zip in and out of leafy boulevards, past bakeries, hotdog stands, and cool cafes. People swim year-round in the pristine waters of the harbor that encircles Copenhagen like a moat around a fortress. Descended from Vikings, Danish people have a familial kinship with the sea. Day trips by train up the spectacular Øresund coast showcase the cobalt blue ocean and sweeping views across to Sweden. A few years ago, Copenhagen was birthplace to a gastronomic revolution known as the New Nordic cuisine. People now come from all over the world to dine in Copenhagen on dishes that speak to the contemporary Danish mentality; clean, simple, and appreciative of all seasons. The quality of food and life in Copenhagen is very high. Maybe it’s the sea air or the Danish eye for design, but people just seem happier in Copenhagen. After spending a day or two here, trying a Smørrebrød sandwich and maybe some aquavit schnapps, you’re bound to take some happiness away with you.
