For me, Breda is a city that, in a word, equates to conviviality. It has traditional pubs, terraces, and the motto "just act normal, that's crazy enough." Although it's not a large city, Breda is vibrant and highly recommended for a weekend getaway in the Netherlands. Explore the city center, but also the Ginneken district, where you'll find many excellent restaurants.

In this Breda City Guide, I've collected the best hotspots for you to visit during a city trip.
