Parks & Nature
Three times bigger than Central Park in New York!
This is the place where locals come to unwind. There are monthly food markets (called: PUUR), a typical dutch pancake restaurant (located inside an old farm called MEERZICHT), beautiful hiking routes, a goat farm and many small ponds.
