Tilburg received its city rights by Napoleon’s brother, when it was a mere street or two, unpaved, a few farms… Now, Tilburg is a blooming city with a few shopping centres, a variety of hotels and motels, and a city centre where the highstreets provides you with a diversity of shops. Public transport is extremely well organised, and a lot of the buildings, -including the modest palace built and designed by King William of Orange the second- have remained intact and are combined with more modern housing and stores. It doesn’t take too long to get to the countryside, to visit the Trappisten monastery, which provides guided tours, or just to ride a bicycle around the countryside. Good for a week or weekend away, Tilburg is a calm place compared to Amsterdam and other cities of that size.
