Terrapille

Nestled in Dutch countryside is the city of Haarlem, located just west of Amsterdam. Hop on the train from Central Station and you’ll arrive in just 20 minutes! Haarlem is one of the most beautiful cities in the Netherlands with its cobbled streets, twinkling canals, and historic churches. A must-see is the Grote Markt, the largest marketplace in the city as well as the picturesque Teylers Museum, the oldest museum of the Netherlands. Pop into this grand building to see the works of Rembrandt, Michelangelo, and more. Don’t miss the the spectacularly decorated Grote or St. Bavokerk (‘great’ or ‘St. Bavo’s Church’). Stop by the newly renovated Hofje van Bakenes tourist center to get your bearings before delving into the city streets. For true greens, marvel at the sights of the nearby Keukenhof Gardens, featuring acres upon acres of flowering tulips. Enjoy delicious Dutch eats or sit along the Spaarne river and take in the peaceful atmosphere. Haarlem is full of surprises, so there’s no telling what special little spots you’ll discover.
