Chateau Neercanne - Maastricht
Chateau Neercanne. On the southern side of Maastricht, close to the Belgian border, lies the 17th century Chateau Neercanne, which is currently being used as a restaurant. At one time there were four separate gardens laid out on terraces at various levels. The 3rd garden was completely re-landscaped and opened again in mid-1997. The landscape architect, W. Snelder, sought inspiration for the design of this baroque garden from information obtained from archeological research, from an old etching of the garden and a lyrical ode to the garden written by the Frisian, Francois Halma in 1715.

Church of Lutheran - Jerusalem
A monastery famous for its wine, gardens & architecture. It was founded in 1890 by the French Trappist order of monks as a contemplative monastery. It is now widely renowned for its wine, as well as its lovely location, architecture and gardens. The winemaking started in 1899. The monks reclaimed and cultivated the Land and planted olive groves, grain fields and vegetable gardens as well as the vineyards. In the rocky areas, pine trees and cypresses were chosen. In World War 1 the monks were expelled by the Turks, but they were able to return, and in 1926 the present monastery was constructed. Visitors are welcome to enjoy the gardens, the architecture and to buy the wine, spirits, vermouths and the olive oil produced here.

City Park Bridge - Budapest - Hungary
A thousand years ago Pest, which was just an island in the Danube, was surrounded by a branch of the river. Over the centuries, the riverbed slowly dried up, leaving a small ditch occasionally filled with drain water in the empty land around the old city walls. Late last century an idea was floated to turn the ditch into a channel with bridges at each avenue and ornamental parks on each side.
