Most beautiful neighbourhood in Vathorst

A beautiful neighbourhood with rivers and lovely buildings. Between the 'veilanden' and buildings with a 'sea' theme, there is a cycle path to schools and a shopping centre. Spacious shopping centre with more than 10 shops and sandwich bars. Lots of children and pets.
