Hoge Veluwe National Park

Last weekend, IES Amsterdam organized an excursion for us to the Hoge Veluwe National Park.  The natural rural setting contrasted with the cosmopolitan Amsterdam, allowing us to take a break from the hustle and bustle.   The Park included an impressive contemporary sculpture garden and museum housing the second largest collection of Van Gogh’s works after the Van Gogh Museum.   After sheltering ourselves from the rain under a pavilion, we went for a bike ride to explore the sand dunes and heathlands unexpected of the Netherlands.
