We found ourselves on the Dutch road again, and apparently it wasn’t one of those long stays this time as we only saw the light of day once, but must admit we were in a comfortable bag this time too.
Well, the day we saw some light we were on board a train for something like an hour or so and when we heard ‘Utrecht’ we were shaken a bit and looks like we left the train.
This Utrecht was a very cosy city... neat canals lined with bars and restaurants down by the canal banks, plenty of shopping possibilities and better still, very nice old buildings too. Amongst them, the main church which locals call the Dom, which was very nice to see too, and the tower opposite as well. From the narrow streets of Utrecht, a bridge and archway lead to the Dom and some metres to the left of it, a very nice building which looked, and actually was the town hall.
And of course, it couldn’t be a Dutch city without plenty of bicycles, flowers (especially tulips) and that occasional coffee shop wouldn’t it? And Utrecht is no exception to that.
Recommend it? Most certainly, but perhaps a day would be enough to get a good idea of what this town has to offer.
