RE: Maastricht City

in Worldmappin2 years ago

This was wonderful and I love Maastricht! We always went to markets there, especially on the weekends, but the Market I loved best was in Tongren and open only on Sunday morning. It was an antique flea market and somewhat touristy later in the morning, but, I would go at 3 or 4 am and help unload the trucks. This is where the vendors trade with each other and the best buys are made. I would be loaded and headed home before 6am.

The churches are gorgeous as is everything in Holland. Yes, I try really hard to call it "Koninkrijk der Nederlanden," but fail miserably. :) You have experienced a wonderful amount of travel during your time there. That is exactly what we did and I am so glad we took the time and money to do so. We came back poorer, but so much richer in so many ways!

Thanks so much for posting your travels!

I've never been to Tongren myself but it sounds like another nice location. I do really love the markets in the country.

The experiences you get from travel are worth it in my opinion haha

Mine too!! But it had to be said! Lol My kids went to the locals schools, wherever we lived. Best education ever!
