This
bike and boat tour sets off in the charming, abundantly decorated
city of Bruges. From here we cycle towards the lively city of
Ghent, full of entertainment and among other things known for
its many different types of beer. Both cities had their heyday
in the Middle Ages, long before the Dutch Golden Age (17th century)
and this is clearly visible in the architecture and paintings
of the so-called Flemish School. From Flanders we continue into
the Netherlands, with its variety of landscapes, wide views
over broad waters, dramatic cloudy skies and scattered solitary
village.
A rich history unfolds with the 'Vestingdriehoek' (Triangle
of Fortified Towns): Gorinchem, where you can still see the
walls of the old fortified town, Loevestein Castle, one of
the Netherlands' best-preserved castles and the old city of
Woudrichem completes the triangle. Along the river Vecht you
cycle (back) to Amsterdam. Along the river is an abundance
of large, monumental country houses, built in the Golden Age
by the rich merchants of Amsterdam. One example is the centre
part of Breukelen's Town Hall: this used to be part of Michiel
de Ruyter's country house.
