Utrecht, Netherlands walking tour
Utrecht is one special city in the Netherlands with a unique atmosphere created by terrace restaurants and promenades right at water level along the canals, producing a delightful ambience in a historic setting, and yet also lined with modern shops and restaurants and bars. It's this wonderful split-level setting with pedestrian streets above and down below by the canals you've got the restaurants on their terraces, really quite special. And there are many other delightful aspects to the city of Utrecht. It's the fourth largest city in the Netherlands, and it's got the oldest university, and they claim the second largest collection of historic medieval buildings, second only to Amsterdam. Standing high above it all is the tallest church tower in the country, then add to the mix typical Dutch ingredients of friendly people with a relaxed tolerant attitude, always ranked high in global indexes of happiness and quality of life – bicycles zooming by, great beer, wonderful food, and a compact pedestrian historic zone riddled with picturesque canals. This is a place you would love to visit as we will show you in this detailed travel guide.

Utrecht Netherlands
Walking in UTRECHT / Netherlands ????????- 4K 60fps (UHD)
Utrecht in the central Netherlands was the religious center of the country for centuries. Like a smaller Amsterdam it has a medieval old town, canals and a good atmosphere.
We start this walk after a Canal Pride festival in the centre. Due to the parade there is some trash in the streets in this otherwise tidy city. From the Dom Tower of Utrecht and St. Martin's Cathedral we explore the many streets of the Utrecht Old Town. People enjoy dinner in the many canal side cafés and restaurants.
We make it to Utrecht Centraal, the train station and shopping complex. There we also see some art installation - a big plastic whale.
We make it back to the old town and end this evening walk right where we started.

Utrecht Central Railway Station - ???????? Netherlands - 4K Virtual Tour
Walking tour of the largest and busiest train station in the Netherlands, Utrecht Central Railway station. Click here ▶ to see highlights and guide.
The largest and busiest train station in the Netherlands is officially open since 2018. However, the entire area is still being developed until at least until 2030. Utrecht Central Station was once built for approximately 35 million passengers per year. Currently, 88 million people use the station annually. Underneath the Stationsplein, next to the train station, is built worlds biggest bicycle parking garage (see also my other video).
Located on one side of the station, there is a station promenade, a public street, which crosses the railroad tracks. Now a passer-by is able to move from west to east without having to use a ‘chip card’. Restaurants, shops, and a possible market give this promenade the atmosphere of a real city street. Through large glass walls, serving as curtains hanging from the roof of 235 by 85 meters, the stations offer all kinds of stunning lookouts, to trains, tracks and expansive views of the city. The interior has a reserved allure and modest charm: it is the people, signage, vehicles and other typical additions that make the station alive and vibrant and give color and ambiance.

Utrecht, Netherlands walk with local guide
Utrecht in the Netherlands is one of the most beautiful places you'll ever see, famous for its dining terraces that are right at the level of the water in the main canal, with the city streets and shops up above. Of course there are lots of bicycles and historic brick buildings in that typical Dutch style. At the same time it's a modern city with a very high standard of living, one of the largest universities in the country and plenty of up-to-date shops set in this marvelous historical atmosphere.
There are wonderful canals that go through the middle of town like you find in many Dutch cities and here the canals are especially interesting because they're split-level, you have the street level up above and the terrace and water level down below with the sidewalk restaurants and the cellar barrel-vaulted basement, so it is really quite an interesting combination.
We are very fortunate to be taking a walk through the old town with one of the very best of the local guides, Jitte Roosendaal, and he's going to take us on a walking tour describing the setting, the people, the buildings and some of the history.
And at the end of the program will have a look at Utrecht by night, with their special lighting and lively restaurants by the canal.
You'll discover that Utrecht is a magical place that you're going to love.
We will also take you on a boat ride through the canals of the historic center and we will look inside several of the important museums, covering history, art and culture with some interactive hands-on activities, at Centraal Museum, Utrecht University Museum and Museum Catharijneconvent.
The historic center is small enough that you could just wander around on your own without any particular plan but it does help to have some information, especially from a guide like Jitte who's a graduate of the local University specializing in cultural geography.
It’s a goo city to live in because it's not that big, and it has a nice atmosphere a lot of history and when you need something well you can buy it, it's everywhere.
And Utrecht is also the heart of the country so it’s important it's, it's lots of connections motorways, train stations and so on. So from here, it's easy to reach every part of the country.
Consider how to handle your visit to Utrecht. Do you come here as a day trip from someplace else, or do you come and spend at least one night, maybe two at a hotel in Utrecht? It's up to you, but as you see, there is much to enjoy in this wonderful city, and it could be done, either way. Let's consider the possibilities. If you come as a daytrip you really want to spend the day and the evening, as you see here with this beautiful lighting, and have dinner at one of these outdoor restaurants. It looks so nice. And then you could take a late train back to your home city, perhaps Amsterdam, it's just 1/2 an hour away on the fast train schedule. Or better yet, stay a night or two in Utrecht. That way after dinner you can just take a leisurely stroll, you're relaxing, back to your hotel, spend the night. The trade-off is you have to deal with your suitcases, moving from one city to the next is never a lot of fun. But it's easy enough here, the distances are short and it's an easy walk from the train station into the Old Town with many hotels available. So do yourself a favor and give Utrecht a couple of days. One of the Netherland's best destinations.

Traveling between cities was so easy because the Netherlands has got perhaps the best train system in Europe. It's phenomenal. The trains are clean, fast, frequent and not expensive. This is a small country, so the cities are relatively close together, you can get from one to the next and 15 or 30 minutes usually. This superb rail service in itself makes a good reason to visit this country, shift for it really does eliminate some of those logistical problems of travel, just getting around. It is so easy with these trains.
Some call it Holland, but the country is The Netherlands. Holland is two provinces in the Netherlands.
