Utrecht, A City For All Seasons

by 36waterfalls - last update: May 17, 2009

NEW Museum Tip and Visit to Botanical Gardens!

Museum Catherijne Convent
The city of Utrecht is the capital of the Dutch Province of Utrecht.
Its earliest foundations date back to Roman times (the year 47).
It's a wonderful city with canals, old architecture, great museums and good shops. I visit here quite often (for me it's only a half hour trainride away). Utrecht is a good place to be all year round.

 Me again, coming back to have a look at the fine new tips that you have added to this page since April 6, 2008. I'd love to tour Utrecht by bicycle, and will certainly do so on my next visit.

 You have nice photos of interesting objects and towns from interesting angles. Your HP just popped up to say hell but I will review more slowly.

 So thats what Utrecht looks like! I only saw it at night from a police van-Oh I can recommend the police station and their cells for a nights stay. It's a long story and quite innocent. Sue x

 I've been to Utrecht twice (once for football, once for work) and really liked the atmosphere of the city which you convey so well. Would have liked to have seen the Dick Bruna Huis too, despite the hoards of kids - maybe next time!
