About Nijmegen
Anyone driving across the bridge into the centre of Nijmegen will understand why its 160,000 citizens are so proud of their city: the waterfront set against the backdrop of the city centre is a splendid sight. Past and present go hand in hand; historic buildings are interspersed with fine examples of modern architecture.
