Where in the world are the cities smaller than villages? In Friesland of course. Our cities get that title not from their structure but from their historical significance. They are cities of dreamers who show that you don’t have to be the biggest to be noticed and the doers who prove that you don’t have to be the richest in order to chase your dreams. The Calimero effect? We don’t do that.

“ The waterways between eleven Frisian cities form the 200 kilometer track of the Eleven Cities Tour. That’s why this sensational ice-skating event can only take place during severe winters. ”
