Heerlen is a city in the southwest of the Netherlands. The city is known for its interesting modern architecture; however, there are also many old buildings here, particularly around the little rivers, such as the castles of Hoensbroek and Terworm. Despite the passage of centuries, these are still very interesting constructions to see. Perhaps the city's most famous building is the Glaspaleis, an impressive glass building. This was formerly a fashion house, although it is now a cultural centre for the city. It is a favourite with tourists, so don't miss it when you come to Heerlen. The city has a number of educational establishments, including the University of Applied Sciences, called the Hogeschool zuyd, and students come here from all over the world. Come to Heerlen and you won't regret it!
