The Netherlands are a densely populated country with famous cities like Amsterdam with its Dutch museum, canals, the castle and its cosy pubs. Another famous city is the Hague with its elegant downtown or Delft and Utrecht - formerly rich trading cities. But the Netherlands also have to offer a great coastline[?] along North Sea, the IJsselmeer and the Veluwemeer[?] - great resorts for sailing with picturesque little typical Dutch towns like Elburg or Harderwijk. The Netherlands are a great country for cycling, sailing or ice skating in Winter. They have mainly flat landscapes with many canals, windmills, little villages, rivers like River Rhine or IJssel, Maas or Schelde. Visitors should try some original Dutch pancakes, either with meat, famous dutch cheese or with jam, and Dutch beer like "Grolsch" and "Heineken".
