Tips from the community

Encompassing four settlements, one in Belgium and three in The Netherlands, the Colonies of Benevolence were formed to combat poverty by creating agricultural colonies in remote locations of the country. In modern-day these quaint villages are pleasant to explore, with historical architecture decorated by the scenic value of the European countryside, flourishing forests, and all.
