If you cycle the Golden Age Triangle, you will enjoy Holland at its best. The route goes right through the medieval/historical landscape and takes you to the beautiful inner cities of Schoonhoven, Oudewater and Gouda. Cities that owe their attractive centre to the Golden Age (1600 - 1700): the period in which the Netherlands grew into the most powerful and prosperous country in the world. Admire the beautiful, famous and lesser known pearls from the Golden Age. Imagine how the seventeenth-century farmers, traders and wealthy people also used these old connecting roads...
