Loved the canals in this city especially when the sky is blue which created beautiful reflections in the river. Great to take your time strolling along the canal and take some good pics.

Vary close to Leiden center, yet a big park with lots of forest and a big open grass area very suitable for pique-nique or fun with kids. The park has a tea-house with service and a kids play ground next to it. There is also a closed area with birds and animals. A nice sunny day you can spend hours strolling around with friends and family.
