Descripción

Step into Maastricht’s most stunning bookstore: Boekhandel Dominicanen, nestled inside a 700-year-old Gothic church. Once a monastery, then a bike rack, printing press, and Carnival party spot, this national treasure was reborn in 2007 with a jaw-dropping steel book tower slicing through centuries of history. Home to the oldest mural in the Netherlands — a 1337 fresco of Thomas Aquinas — and a cozy coffee shop where the altar once stood, it’s a surreal blend of medieval grandeur and modern literary magic. Perfect for book lovers, history buffs, and wanderers exploring Vrijthof square — it’s not just a bookstore, it’s an unforgettable experience.

Pride Under Siege as Reports Surge | Amsterdam News

WorldPride in Amsterdam kicked off amid rising safety concerns, as LGBTQIA+ reporting platform RITA saw over 70 incident reports—far above its usual daily average—mostly linked to the Milkshake festival and Pride Walk. Experts believe increased visibility and newly established safer spaces may have encouraged more reporting, but the spike follows a similar surge at Pride Amersfoort, where a serious assault occurred. The event’s mood is further shadowed by a deadly van attack at Berlin’s Pride, labeled a terrorist act by ISIS, prompting Amsterdam’s mayor to condemn the violence and announce heightened security for remaining Pride events.

With no sightings or signs of the vessel, authorities fear a mechanical failure may have caused the disappearance. The Dutch government is providing consular support while local teams and the public are urged to report any sightings.

Moved Windmills of Zaanse Schans | Amsterdam News

Step back in time at Zaanse Schans, the Dutch village that’s less ancient relic and more modern marvel—built by relocating entire 18th-century windmills and homes piece by piece in the 1960s to preserve history. Once Europe’s first industrial hub, this green-painted wooden wonderland buzzed with wind-powered sawmills, pigment grinders, and oil presses. Today, it’s not just a museum—it’s a living village where artisans still craft cheese, chocolate factories still perfume the air, and history breathes with every creak of wood and whisper of wind.
