Utrecht
Utrecht is situated in the heart of Holland and is one of the oldest Dutch cities. The canals and wharves enjoy worldwide fame because no other city has pedestrian wharves along its romantic 14th century sunken canals. They were constructed centuries ago to provide access to the cellars underneath the canal-side buildings. The Dom Church and Dom Tower stand at the center of a crucifix of four churches: the Pieterskerk, Pauluskerk, Janskerk and Mariakerk. Utrecht is also renowned for its museums, showcasing everything from Christian art to street organs. Utrecht will marvel you with its many specialty shops, cozy restaurants and interesting museums.
