Introducing Groningen City
Looking at a map of the Netherlands, Groningen seems a long way from anywhere (we’re talking Dutch distances here, not Texan), but looks can be deceiving.

This vibrant, youthful city of the north is very much part of the comings and goings of the country, and has everything you’d expect of a progressive metropolis. Its student population (which has been around since 1614 when the university opened) of 20, 000 ensures a healthy and hedonistic nightlife exists alongside the art museums, theatre and classical concerts its more mature, established residents demand. And like everywhere in this waterlogged country, you’ll find gabled houses reflected in still canals.
