maastricht This picturesque, ancient city has been serving as host to TEFAF since its inception. Developed as a Belgic settlement that was conquered by the Romans in the Gallic wars, Maastricht is now a modern city with elements of ancient Rome, medieval pilgrimage sites, 19th-century garrisons and fortresses, early industrial relics, and contemporary fashion, design and culinary destinations.

Maastricht sprawls across both sides of the expansive Maas (Meuse) River, and its landmark bridges provide some of the Netherlands’ most striking views. Sightseeing highlights include the St. Servatius Basilica Romanesque basilica on Vrijthof Square, the Fort St. Pieter and its magnificent caves creating a labyrinth of more than 20,000 tunnels and the underground network of casemates.

The Bonnenfantenmuseum has a collection of Old Masters to modern art. Shopping is particularly thrilling in Maastricht, which boasts some of Europe’s loveliest boutiques and famous fashion brands. Just outside the city, find various vineyards gracing the slopes of the Limburg hills.

On the mezzanine level, the Kruisherenrestaurant takes over the central church hall with its vaulted ceilings, chancel windows and original wall paintings. Inside, lighting installations by German lighting artist Ingo Mauer create an otherworldly effect.

The restaurant serves a variety of culinary specialities, prepared with pure and regional ingredients.

Built on marshland beginning in the 13th century, Amsterdam grew rapidly into a major metropolis within a few centuries, and by the 17th century it was recognized as one of the most powerful cities in the world.

In addition to its extraordinary museums, the city’s highlights include the lovely central Vondelpark, luxury shopping destination P.C. Hooft­ straat, the Royal Palace, the Hortus Botanicus, famous squares such as Leidseplein and Dam Square, and of course the famous and gawk-worthy Red Light District.

Amsterdam is 2 1/2 hours to Maastricht by car.

Dining options include the two-­ Michelin star Bord’Eau, with its contemporary creative cuisine and the Hoofdstad Brasserie, winner of the Bib Gourmand 2014, with international cuisine and seasonal specialties.
