The Southern Holland / South Holland region


The Hollands, both South and North, form the wealthiest part of the country. This shows in their rich architecture and picturesque towns and villages, the abundance of museums and theatres, and great number of restaurants and shopping areas. Although Holland is one of the most densely populated areas in the world, great efforts are made to keep part of it free from buildings, the socalled Green Heart. It is great for recreational purposes, such as sailing, cycling, walking and horse ridiing.
The Leiden area
Leiden is a market town, whose market has been in existence for more than 900 years. Its university recently had its 430th anniversary. Countless museums bear witness to Leiden’s important role in Holland’s history. It is the birth place of Rembrandt van Rijn, who was named after the river Rhine which flows through Leiden and in which the Pride of Leyden is moored. At the same time, Leiden is very much a modern town. It is great for shopping and eating out. As it’s quite compact, all features can easily be reached on foot. You can stroll through the historic cobblestoned centre, visit one of the museums or take a drink on one of the floating terraces.
