I lived in Maastricht for 20 years and I want to tell you a little bit about my town.
Maastricht was founded by the romans, a very long time ago. The city became the name: Mosam Trajectum. This means: crossover ont the Maas(our river).
Even longer ago, some million years, Maastricht was laying under the sealevel. In our caves here, are still remains of dinosaurs in the clay.
In 2001 is Maastricht a modern town, with the romance of a small french village. The people here are friendly and always love to chat with strangers. Hospitality is something normal here.
Some numbers: ------------- There live 130.000 people in Maastricht; 28.000 of them are students. We have 600 pubs; open untill 5 a.m. The shops are open untill 10 p.m. There are 37 churches from different religions.
Where to go? ------------ We have a new complex here; its called Centre Ceramique. You cann shop there, have a drink, visit the city-museum, visit a big library, walk around and meet people. A very modern complex that is very beloved by tourists and the people of Maastricht.
You can take a trip with a boat to Liege in Belgium on a hot summerday and visit the caves under the town. You can also visit the caves under the city of Maastricht. In WW2 the people hided here.
There are a lot of parks and places, where you can sit, drink and watch the people go by.
How to behave? -------------- When you throw your garbage on the street you have to pay a ticket for that; there are garbage-cans every 50 meters. avoid driving by car in the center of the city. You can park your car out of town and take a free bus to the center. Pickpockets are selden here, because we have cameras in the street and shops.
Food: ----- We have 4 MacDonalds here and about 800 restaurants. You can have food from every country in the world. The best restaurants are the ones with a french kitchen.
You can also visit me when you are nearby. Write a mail when you want more info about my town. Maybe I see you one day. Bye, Ilonka
