Arnhem looks beautiful in your pictures - so much history there! The architecture is stunning! Going up in the glass lift in Eusebiuskerk tower must be quite exciting.

Thank you for sharing you Arnhem pages. It seemed appropriate to look at these today(Remembrance Sunday in UK). I am amazed by the amount of the old city that remained undamaged.

I only know Arnhem from the movie "A Bridge Too Far", so it was nice to read about the city and its attractions as they are today.

Very nice page! Arnhem reminded me Delft. Yes, Eusebiuskerk is really a magnificent presence in the town of Arnhem! Your VT friends have very Russian names Pavlik, Irena and Ilya, may be something connects them with Russia...
