From the Netherlands World / Stories
Holland and the Netherlands are often used interchangeably, but the country makes more sense through its different cities and its long relationship with low land and water.
Netherlands / Your next move
Keep exploring Netherlands with our travel partners.
The name Netherlands means lower countries, a useful starting point for understanding the landscape. Reclaimed polders help explain why drainage matters so much here. Amsterdam, The Hague and Rotterdam also separate three roles visitors sometimes confuse: capital, seat of government and major port. Keeping those distinctions in mind gives a clearer picture of the country than the shorthand Holland.
