Part 2 – Venlo
A rather small city (100k citizens) in southern Netherlands, in Limburg (northern Limburg). In 2013, Venlo won the prestigious 'Best City Centre of the Netherlands' award, however, it is quite emblematic of city in the Nethelands – wonderful cycling infrastructure, great architecture (even in a city smaller than Elbląg) and that's all well-connected using amazing railway system (with metro-like frequencies on IC).
