Maastricht is located in the south of the Netherlands, close to Liege and Aachen. It has a more southern, relaxed atmosphere than other parts of The Netherlands, and attracts many international tourists not only for its rich history (founded by the Romans) but also for its beauty. The city center is split in two by the river Maas, with the train station located in the smaller part of the center.
The centre of the city is especially attractive, due to its wealth of historic buildings; some 1450 monuments are protected by law. Visit the main square (Vrijthof) or the Market, and admire the beautiful Basilica of Saint Servatius, Basilica of Our Beloved Lady, O.L. Vrouweplein or the famous 'St. Pietersberg' caves, which are the result of centuries of excavation of marl, a building stone, resulting in an enormous labyrinth of more than 20,000 passages.
Whatever your interest is, you'll find a museum of it in Maastricht. A true eyecatcher on the banks of the Meuse: the building designed by the Italian architect Aldo Rossi with the striking dome-shaped tower, home to the Bonnefanten Museum. Inside, you will find major art collections, providing overviews of historic as well as contemporary art, distributed over two floors. Nearby you find the Centre Céramique, the Het Vervolg theatre, and the Netherlands Architecture Institute – a broad range of culture just a stone's throw from each other.
For a drink you may visit the Brewery De Keyzer NA Bosch. This traditional brewery, which was in operation until 1970, is still almost completely intact and is an important industrial historical monument. Or enjoy your drink and the activity on the streets from a local bar.
