    Sorry Laura , but its Mergpijpjes ( which translates to bonemarrow pipe ) and not Mergelpijpjes ( Mergel is a kind of rock , I wouldnt want to try that :P )
    Great to see that you'r not just visiting Amsterdam , for the Netherlands is so much more than just Amsterdam .

    Mty father fought for Nijmagem & Eindoven during the war - When the war finnished Dad signed up for the British control commision - I think It was his way of making amends for all the damage he'd done during the 4 year he was in the army - On his time off my dad would collect stores - tins of food stuff - Chocolate some fruit if he could get his hands on it He would drive to a family in Nijmagen who had looked after him when he got injured - I have some small fotos of him going there - Looking at this Video of yours I can see why My Dad liked to go back ti Nijmagen !

You were impressed by the bicycle parking in Nijmegen? Well, you'll be impressed more: Utrecht has got a brand new 3-floors bicycle parking being finished this year and by then will be the largest in the world. A part for about 6,000 bikes is already open. We also have the tallest church tower of the country, a very modern (and the busiest and largest; you Americans must like those largest things) very new and modern train station of the country. Very different canals than you know and a medieval city center that is actually older than Amsterdam's.

  • @Niels-3
    @Niels-3 6 лет назад +2

    Nijmegen is called the "oldest" city in the Netherlands because it was the first city to acquire market rights and therefore the first recognised city. But Nijmegen is FAR from the most beautiful city in the Netherlands. Nijmegen was also bombed during WW2 and a large part of the city centre was destroyed. No offence, but how can you call Nijmegen the most beautiful city when it's the first city you visit in the Netherlands? You have nothing to compare it to yet? Cities like Amsterdam, Leiden, Utrecht, Deventer, Groningen are infinitely more beautiful than Nijmegen.
