Haarlem

Nestled just 20 minutes from Amsterdam, Haarlem is a Dutch gem where history, culture, and charm converge in cobbled lanes and gabled houses. It’s a city that invites you to slow down and savor every step. Haarlem also knows how to indulge the senses. Boutique-lined streets like Grote Houtstraat offer irresistible shopping, and every Saturday the city transforms into a lively open-air market filled with cheese, flowers, and stroopwafels. Craving green space? The nearby Haarlemmerhout is the oldest public park in the Netherlands and perfect for a picnic or peaceful stroll. As evening falls, Haarlem’s cozy brown cafés and candlelit bistros come alive. Locals sip Dutch beer beside canals that shimmer with soft golden reflections—proof that sometimes, smaller cities hold the biggest magic.
