Houses in many shapes and seizes

Traditionally in these surroundings the farmhouses were build, but now-a-days one sees also that the villages offer quite large (especially in Dutch standards) for more wealthier residence that like to escape the busy and noisy citylife. Here in the open countryside the soil-prices are lower and the law permits building in more variations and styles. It however goes at the cost of the pretty landscapes that are quite ruined in some places by the new greed of rich and famous. there are however those who reckon and built in the style of past times. The result is beautiful renewed images that one recognised from old postcards.

Ideal place to relax on a couch near the Amstel

Many tourists only visit Amsterdam and ... I must emphasis that Amsterdam is by far Holland and for sure has only little to do with The Netherlands. This last two touristic spots are well outside Amsterdam, to begin with along the Amstel river (as well as going North from our capitol.
Also for those who after a few days in hectic A'dam, want to relax a bit and enjoy the silence. Go outside the town and seek the Dutch landscapes you see in the paintings in the Rijksmuseum. In the picture a definately ideal place to relax, along the banks of the Amstel in Vrouwenakker.
