Tell me about dutch cuisine.... cheese?

CITIES:
Amsterdam is crazy fun, yes.... but that is about it
can u find a city in the nethelrands outside Amsterdam that competes with Antwerp in terms of stuff to see and do?
what about cities that can compete with brugge or ghent in terms of architecture, activities etc?

ARCHITECTURE: find me a city in the netherlands with art deco, art nouveau like ud fine in brussels!!! Brussels is an art deco/art nouveau paradise!! Netherlands has nice architecture but is largely homogenous when its classical and the new one doesnt do it for me (see rotterdam)

PEOPLE: belgians are like south european people in terms that they are colorful, like to talk to strangers, like to welcome new people they don't know. Dutch are closed like germans and don't talk to anyone who is not dutch or is in their group of friends!!!

I see you are from belgium, you belgians really do not appreciate your little treasure of a country!!! its so sad!

Switzerland and the Scandinavians countries are probably the most boring countries, but they are also the most quiet and wealthiest. Give me tranquillity & wealth anytime if the only price tag is to be bored, I take it! some thinker even said that boredom was a necessary part of human life, so...

I like to talk to anyone NOT Dutch especially on holidays.
This may apply to the Flemish, but definitely not to the Walloons.

"Relivent"? "Capitol"? Don't you have schools in London? Maybe you're too busy having fun to learn to read and write.

Its all subjective e.g. an opinion which means it cannot.
