Been in the Netherlands for about two years, passed by Utrecht lots of times from the south going up to Amsterdam, but never really took the time to go around and explore. The closest was during my parents trip, but even then we just did a quick walk and grabbed a bite, and didn’t even make it to the canals. And so, before I head out of Europe, I made sure to take a few hours to do a longer stop in Utrecht and atleast go explore the canal area and main old town, to get a feel for the city. It was, as I’ve been told, quite charming, like a small piece of Amsterdam.
To give you the highlights, here are my ‘visions’ of Utrecht…
