Central Holland

In the center of Holland you will find two very different provinces, Utrecht and Flevoland. Utrecht has forests, castles, meadows and ancient towns. Flevoland on the other hand is Holland’s youngest province and consists mainly of farmland. It is hard to believe that this was part of the IJsselmeer lake at one time and that the Dutch reclaimed this new land.

Utrecht
The IJsselmeer in the North bounds this province. The capital is Utrecht, a city known for its University, its wharves and canal side terraces. Or climb the beautiful tower of the Dom Church and have a splendid view over the city. Amersfoort is the other main city of the province. If you love the outdoors, walk on the beautiful Utrechtse Heuvelrug between Utrecht and Amersfoort or have a nice sailing day on the Loosdrechtse Plassen. If you're interested in the history of Christianity in The Netherlands, visit the Museum Catharijneconvent in Utrecht, a former convent in which you nowadays find everything about the history of the Christian culture.
