Best of Netherlands.

Dutch neighborhoods are compact enough to cross by bike in ten minutes and dense enough that you will want to stop four times along the way. Amsterdam Noord turned a shipyard across the IJ into a full cultural district. Rotsoord in Utrecht converted old canal-side factories into bars, restaurants, and music venues. Zeeheldenkwartier in The Hague is where the government town finally loosens up. Four cities, all flat, all bikeable, all built for the kind of street life that happens at pedal speed.
