Down Town Gourmet Market

“The Dommel River near the Van Abbemuseum – follow it south towards Stadswandelpark. Stadswandelpark has tons of green space and also has a statue garden, well-trimmed lawns, and walking trails. There is even an Observatorium, a few nice ponds, and a pavilion with a restaurant! This public park is also close to Genneper Park which we’ll mention further down. ”

“Great pub with many different beers and a wide collection of games. Great for a chill start of your night. But be careful: it's often quite busy so get there in time (19.00h-21.00h) to secure a spot. ”

“The museum building is a strange mix of futuristic style and old red brick. Opened in 1936, this unusually designed building is one of the best museums of modern and contemporary art in Europe. There are over 2700 pieces of art – ranging from paintings to sculptures and created famous artists like Picasso, Mondrain, and Kandinsky. The Van Abbe is very easy to get to. We had a wander around the entire building but didn’t go in due to time constraints. It’s just south of the train station about a 10-minute walk through shops/bars and located beside the Dommel Rover in the Stratumseind District. ”

“Do not forget to ask for the "Bonus korting" at the check-out, some cassiers forget!.”
