The Netherlands, a country in northwestern Europe, is known for a flat landscape of canals, tulip fields, windmills and cycling routes. Amsterdam, the capital, is home to the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and the house where Jewish diarist Anne Frank hid during WWII. Canalside mansions and a trove of works from artists including Rembrandt and Vermeer remain from the city's 17th-century "Golden Age."
The name of Holland is widely used also for the Netherlands national football team, including in the Netherlands. The region called the Low Countries (comprising Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg) and the Country of the Netherlands, have the same toponymy.
The Netherlands is well known for its colourful tulip fields, the windmills and the nice canals known as Grachten. The climate in the Netherlands is moderate and maritime due its location in the North Sea. So the summers are not too hot, and the winters are mild with low-temperature fluctuations.
