More failure at me not gushing over my home country:
01: The Efteling is the center of the universe for just about anyone who has ever been there
02: Our Parliament is blesh, looks like a little village, not the heart of a former empire
03: The Ooijpolder is home to the cutest hamlet called Persingen and has a splendid tea garden
04: Never been there, but grew up with Nijntje/Miffy of course. Gerrit Rietveld, Piet Mondriaan and Miffy illustrator Dick Bruna all come from the province of Utrecht. A coincidence? Nah.
05: Can confirm. I'm 5'11'' and considered sort of short over here. Being a giant in Asia moods is moods.
06: Eindhoven is our silicon valley, city spawned Philips and ASML. Never been to the Evoluon, but they want to make a museum there so who knows?
07: Valkenburg is drop-dead gorgeous. Very popular tourist destination for the caves and atmosphere. This castle? Four million and it's yours:

08: Never been to Zandvoort, but last year when Max won there I cried. Every sport deserves an orange army treatment.
09: No idea what this is about, but generally what is meant is the village of Marken. Never been there, but pictures tell the story by itself. The quintessence of Holland.
10: Never been inside one, but I've seen video. Impractical, but fantastic architecture, wish we had more creative stuff like this.
11: The Dom used to be the bell tower to a cathedral, but large part of the church was swept away in a tornado. Looks weird nowadays.
12: Never been there, everyone knows the story though. Everyone know the story if this being a tourist trap too.
13: Never been there, never head of it as well.
14: Been to The Wallen of course, but it's about as interesting as watching British tourists act like weed is a hard drug.
15: Never been there, heard it's spectacular for children aged 8-12 or so.
16: Never been there, scandal.
17: I worked at Burgers' Zoo and it has to be among the top 5 zoos in the world. Can recommend to anyone, you'll be amazed.
18: I have no idea what the Heineken Experience is supposed to be, but yeah ok Heineken boring but decent beer.
19: Every year thousands of people dive into the sea on the 1st of January at Scheveningen or at least visit the beach. And so have I.
20: Almost every constitution ever says no discrimination based on sex or gender or whatever. Legalized same-sex marriage is a misnomer, we de-legalized this bigotry.
21: The kale stamppot we simply call 'boerenkool met worst' and it can't be explained, but yeah is in my top 5 favorite foods. It's Bland: The Dish, but what a serve it is.
22: Never been to Bourtange, but yeah Dutch star fortresses be picturesque as shit.
23: Kings Day always ends up disappointing. Every city center turns into an open air party with people puking and pissing on the streets and just litter everywhere. Fuck it.
24: Naturalis best museum of Natural History I've ever seen. Can recommend.
25: With the Neds being so flat climbing walls stand out as modern church spires. Really cool stuff when you see it.
