The City of Maastricht in Limburg, The Netherlands

Maastricht

Here you see two of the most beautiful places of my city, Maastricht.  You see Vrythot three times, one as it is now from the front, one aerial view, and one with the Maas River.  This is the river that gave our city its name.  The fourth picture is one of the Bonnefanten Museum with its bullet-shaped tower.  It contains mostly modern art.

This is postmarked from The Netherlands with a machine stamp in 2008.
