Getting its name from the medieval Duchy of Limburg (now split among Holland, Belgium and Germany and the birthplace of the infamously pungent Limburger cheese), Limburg is the Netherlands’ southernmost region. Many of the area’s best attractions are concentrated in the capital of Maastricht, but other sights include the 12th-century Valkenburg castle ruins, the 17th-century Eijsden castle, the 20th-century Glaspaleis (built next to a medieval church at Heerlen), and De Meinweg National Park.

Kasteeltuinen has vast, beautiful gardens to explore. There are rose gardens, tropical gardens, Japanese gardens, bamboo, Italian and the list goes on. All are delicately manicured and well kept. There is a huge crazy golf course that is included in the entrance fee. Lots of lakes and waterfalls too. We stayed about 3 hours and didn't see everything because the site is massive. We visited the house too. The interior was disappointing. We also fed some goats, chickens and Koi Carp. This is a place to visit on a dry day as 90 percent is outside. Kids go free in July and August, which is always a bonus! You can get cheaper tickets sometimes on Social Deal or the ANWB members' site. I plan to return to see the parts that I did not get to see.

Hoensbroek Castle is one of the largest and most beautiful castles in the Netherlands. The oldest section of the castle structure dates from 1250. The 40 different beautiful halls and rooms in the castle will take you on a fantastic journey through time. Discover the gorgeous ballroom, let the shivers run down your spine in the dungeon, and climb the 60 m high medieval look-out/defensive tower.
Visited here with guest as a result of the reviews and it did not disappoint - it was a nice day so went in primarily to wander round the grounds (no manicured gardens but pleasant and green) but spent the whole time looking at all the rooms, up and down staircases (alternative access possible but ask ahead), in the dungeon, in the attic. Really well done so that you get enough information and anecdotes of people who passed through from centuries ago to recently, without being overwhelmed. Spent so much time we even missed the cafe in the courtyard which looked lovely! Very impressive castle - and on the list if you have an annual all-Netherlands castle entry card.

In the historical center of Maastricht you will find the Saint Servaas Bridge connecting the 2 sides of the city. This bridge has been around for several hundred years (built in the 13th century)- modernized and refurbished through the centuries. Today it has a built in section that can be tilted so the large ships navigating on the Maas can go past it. Don't worry there is a loud alarm when they open the bridge so you have time to move from the tilted section. It is a pedestrian area - where bicycles are also allowed but you don't really have to worry about the cars when you are on the bridge. On one side of the bridge you can also find a small souvenir shop - if you need some memorabilia.... I recommend you include the bridge in your tour of Maastricht.
