Most of the hundreds of internet sites on life in the Netherlands are in Dutch. The following sites, however, are in English:

www.nbt.nl
The Netherlands' Tourist Board's site. Information on 25,000 things to do and places to stay. An ideal starting-point for planning a trip to the Netherlands.

Austerlitz
The Austerlitz Pyramid offers splendid views of the extensive forested region of the Utrecht range of hills between Rhenen and Zeist. Napoleon's troops built the tower early in 1800 near the hamlet of Austerlitz. These days, the tower is a tourist attraction. It stands some 25 metres tall and lies in the municipality of Woudenberg.
