Eindhoven is a vibrant and dynamic city located in the southern part of the Netherlands, known for its innovation and design. It is the fifth-largest city in the country and is often referred to as the technology and design hub due to the presence of tech companies and educational institutions like the Eindhoven University of Technology.
