Amersfoort Zoo

Reviewed By boodybah - Utrecht, The Netherlands

Great to spend the day with your kids. It's very well maintained and the stuff are very helpful; a lot of different animals, playgrounds, kids train, small restaurants, gift shops, ice cream shops, etc. Watch out for bees when staying in the outdoor restaurant. Must get baby/kids stroller, the place is huge and involves a lot of walking (FYI they do provide there at €2 and deposit of €10.)

Botanic Gardens

Reviewed By MarkC4313 - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

One of the few places in The Netherlands you'll find a small mountain, complete with it's own waterfall. Whilst my age'ed Mother In Law began her ascent of the rocky pathway, my 8 year old went dinosaur hunting. Then he took great delight in all the carnivorous plants and noted how close many of them were to the butterfly house. On retrieving the MIL from the North face of 'Mount Utrecht' we spent some time in the forest walk.

Wilhelminapark

Reviewed By Jake23121 - New Jersey, United States

This is a beautiful park to bike or walk outside of the city center. Lots of grass and benches to relax on. It’s a beautiful sight in late April. If you need a break from the city center try coming here.

Nationaal Bomenmuseum Gimborn

Reviewed By 981ondinap

A unique place. Not only a beautiful park, with wonderful trees, plants etc. What you here have, something that it's difficult to experience, is the magic. There is a very special atmosphere of peace and harmony. I am very sensitive and I had the impression that I could feel the trees literally breathing. You can just sit down on one of the benches and stay silent. You feel Nature, in its simplicity, with its sounds, which fills you with a sense of completeness. A special place.

Bloemenmarkt, Janskerkhof, Utrecht

Reviewed By lovetotravel1992 - Utrecht, The Netherlands

No matter if you visit Utrecht in spring, summer or autumn - do not miss out on this wonderful, amazing flower market! Takes place each Saturday on Janskerkhof. This is so much more original and beautiful than the flowermarkets in Amsterdam. And what you buy here is good quality. That goes especially for the flower bulbs.
