1000 Dutch Delights is a series of tips on the most unusual locations in Holland, sites not well known to the wider community. These "delights" have been selected throughout Holland in the areas of Culture, History, Gastronomy and Lodging, showcasing excellent places to visit, where to eat, and how to travel through the Netherlands with the most interesting itineraries.
Holland offers cultural heritage gems such as beautiful historic towns, special regions, outdoor spaces, fortresses and waterlines. Half the country is below sea level and this has given Holland exceptional, but less well-known landscapes: wetlands, polders and moorlands unique in Europe. Holland boasts a growing list of restaurants with Michelin stars to their names and these and others can be found for instance inside factories, towers and small castles.
Among Holland's "1000 Dutch Delights" are hotels offering artistic, historical or fun style rooms and B&B's housed in country homes, monasteries and farms. Sleeping in a castle, boat, lighthouse or haystack, these unexpected delights are only a short distance away from Amsterdam.
