🇳🇱 Eindhoven Express Tour ⏳
Arrived in Eindhoven by train from Frankfurt in the evening 🚆. With a full day of meetings tomorrow and an evening trip to The Hague, I squeezed in a quick city exploration! 🏰 Highlight: Sint-Catharinakerk (St. Catherine’s Church) The iconic landmark of Eindhoven, designed by Pierre Cuypers—the legendary Dutch architect behind Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum & Central Station! 🖼️ Dutch Charm: Tiny Street Sculptures The Netherlands is full of adorable little sculptures 🎨, reflecting the nation’s playful and creative spirit. Fun observation: Neighboring Germany feels so different—less whimsical, more structured. Same Indo-European roots, same Germanic language family, yet totally distinct vibes! 🍊➡️🍋 Theory: Maybe it’s geography & history? The Dutch, living by the sea 🌊 (with bad weather & lowlands), thrived on trade & piracy, while Germany relied on land & agriculture. Fascinating stuff—need to research more! 📚 #Eindhoven #Netherlands #TravelThoughts #ArchitectureLover #CultureCompare #QuickTrip 🚀🇳🇱
