| The Dutch town of Haarlem is located just 20 km west of
Amsterdam. The town has
a number of interesting
tourist attractions,
museums and art galleries. It is also an acclaimed
shopping destination. Because Haarlem is the centre of the tulip growing industry, it is a fabulous place to visit in the springtime. |

Among its many attractions is a
beautiful old church called the Sint-Bravo Cathedral. There are many good hotels in Haarlem city centre, at the nearby seaside community of Zandvoort and around Schiphol Airport. Visitors can catch a local bus directly from Schiphol Airport to Haarlem. |
| A commuter rail service operates between Haarlem Holland
and downtown Amsterdam. Trains leave the
Haarlem central
train station every 10 minutes and travel time is
only 15 or 20 minutes. Haarlem is easily reached from most European cities, thanks to the proximity of Amsterdam's Schiphol International Airport. |
