Leiden's Old Town, Netherlands: Timeless Charm

Hey everyone, don't miss the beautiful town of Leiden on your trip to the Netherlands! Strolling through Leiden's Old Town feels like time slows down. This special place is home to the prestigious Leiden University, where even Einstein taught for 26 years. The academic atmosphere is palpable. There are so many ways to explore! For a relaxing sightseeing experience, take a boat tour along the canals and admire the unique architecture and scenery. If you prefer to explore at your own pace, rent a bike near the train station—it's super convenient. I have one small regret: when I wanted to take a boat tour, they closed at 5 pm! I'll have to try again next time. But hey, that gives me a reason to return 😆. Have you ever had any small regrets during your travels? Share your stories in the comments below!
