Travel Guide Maastricht

Maastricht, the oldest city in the Netherlands with Nijmegen, is without doubt one of the most beautiful in the country: it is the jewel of the South! We are here in the very heart of Europe, historically of course, because it is here that the famous Maastricht treaty was signed on February 7, 1992, but above all geographically and culturally, in a site that is a successful mix of all the flavors and moods that we love in Europe. It is above all a unique and rich city, old and modern, large and small, which gathers its treasures in a sublime center. Culturally, Maastricht has a lot to offer, with beautiful old churches, very interesting museums like the Bonnefanten Museum, but also the Europa Office. The city is also the result of a successful combination of beautiful historical buildings and new, splendid and daring architecture. This is why you should spend some time in the Ceramic Quarter and especially on the Plein 1992 square. Maastricht, with its 123,000 inhabitants, is above all the place of a certain art of living and a gastronomy that comes from France, the restaurants are plentiful, the elegant stores are numerous and the inhabitants display a chic that one doesn't often come across in the rest of the Netherlands.
