Hello all,
I like to share some inspiration for anyone who is planning to visit The Netherlands.
Today the city Arnhem.
Located in the province of Gelderland, a lovely big city with a rich history.
Arnhem has a nice city center on walking distance from the station, filled with shops and cultural places.
- Musis Sacrum
Musis Sacrum (Latin for 'dedicated to the Muses'), is a concert hall, located on the Velperplein and Park Lauwersgracht in Arnhem. The building, which is also called Musis for short, dates from 1847 and was designed by the architect Hendrik Willem Fromberg. It is the home base of Phion, formerly Het Gelders Orkest. In addition, concerts, dance performances and club nights are given.
Musis
- From mainstation, take bus 3 Het Duifje (4 minutes) to busstop “Velperplein” or walk 13 minutes.
- Park Sonsbeek
Park Sonsbeek as an estate has been around for over 250 years. Before that, it was a stream valley in the forest. 750 years ago, the first watermill stood along the Sint-Jansbeek next to the Great Waterfall and the area consisted of several small estates. Baron Van Heeckeren merged those estates into Park Sonsbeek. One hundred years ago, in 1899, the core of the estate came into the hands of the municipality and it became a public park.

- Museum Arnhem
View art in one of the most beautifully situated museum buildings in the Netherlands. That is precisely what you can do in Museum Arnhem. The museum is located on a high lateral moraine with a magnificent view of the Rhine. The freely accessible sculpture garden is a wonderful place. Even without a museum ticket, you can see the sculpture collection here, have a drink overlooking the Rhine or play a game of ping-pong.
