Flowers and Art, a Serene and Beautiful City: Haarlem

Haarlem, though small in size, is a charming destination filled with canals, red-brick buildings, quiet alleys, and a warm atmosphere, making it an ideal day trip away from the bustling Amsterdam. At the heart of the city stands the magnificent St. Bavo Cathedral (St. Bavo Kerk), and in front of it lies the lively Grote Markt square, bustling with traditional markets, open-air cafes, and people.
