The world's first solar-powered, glow in the dark bicycle path opened yesterday in the city of Eindhoven in the Netherlands. The Van Gogh-Roosegaarde cycle path was designed by artist Daan Roosegaarde.

The bicycle path is illuminated by thousands of twinkling stones and was inspired by Vincent van Gogh's world-famous painting, Starry Night. The cycle path forms part of the Van Gogh cycle route that connects the Vincent van Gogh heritage locations in the province of Brabant, Vincent's homeland.
