Nijmegen: the oldest city of the Netherlands
Nijmegen is a city where centuries of history meet youthful energy. As the oldest city in the Netherlands, it is surrounded by a surprisingly green and diverse landscape. From the vibrant city centre, it takes less than fifteen minutes to walk to the beaches along the Waal, where you might even come face to face with wild Konik horses.
But Nijmegen has much more to offer. From lively nights out and exceptional restaurants to charming shops and endless walking and cycling routes through the Rijk van Nijmegen. Here, city life and nature are always close at hand.
In this episode of Orange Horizons, we discover Nijmegen: Old City, Young Vibe.

Kinderdijk: Living with Water
Nineteen windmills, endless waterways and a landscape that has been in motion for centuries. In this episode of Orange Horizons (https://www.holland.com/global/tourism/getting-around/interests/orange-horizons), we visit Kinderdijk (https://www.holland.com/global/tourism/get-inspired/current/unesco/the-windmills-of-kinderdijk), where people and water are in constant dialogue.
We discover how the windmills once pumped excess water out of the polders, how millers and their families lived among the wooden gears, and how modern pumping stations have taken over the work today. Along the way, we share practical tips for experiencing Kinderdijk on foot, by bicycle and from the water.
