Maastricht is hip and happening! Besides burgundian conviviality, you will also find alternative parties and cultural events.
If you are looking for a piece of foreign country within the Dutch borders, Maastricht is the place to be. It is the place where north and south meet. With quaint neighbourhoods with charming streets, historic buildings and squares, chic boutiques and yet plenty of trendy hotspots and culinary delights, Maastricht exudes something un-Dutch that you won't find anywhere else.
As a university city, Maastricht has a remarkable number of international students, who make the city buzz. Together with its own hospitable population, they show you that Maastricht is so much more than just that burgundian city in the south.
