> 
> Maastricht is the oldest city in the Netherlands. Its oldest remains are more 
> than 2000 year old and pre-date the Roman settlement. The city has a beautiful 
> historic city centre with nice squares where you can eat and drink something.
> 
> There are different options for traveling to Maastricht. Maastricht has an 
> airport, named Maastricht-Aachen airport, with connection to a few places in 
> Europe. There is a bus going from the airport the train station of Maastricht. 
> Another possibility is Eindhoven airport, which has more connections to cities 
> in Europe. There is bus going from the airport to train station of Eindhoven. 
> There one can take the train to Maastricht, which takes one hour. It is also 
> possible to fly to Schiphol airport near Amsterdam, which is the main airport 
> in the Netherlands. The train from Schiphol to Maastricht takes two and a 
> half to three hours with a switch in Amsterdam central station or in Utrecht 
> central station. A last option by airplane is flying to Zaventem, the main 
> airport in Belgium near Brussels. The train from Zaventem to Maastricht 
> requires one and a half hours.
> 
> Maastricht has a train connection to the Netherlands and Belgium. When using 
> the German railways, it is recommended to take the train to Aachen and in 
> Aachen to take the bus to Maastricht. The bus requires less than one and a 
> half hours.
