Waag Square, Leeuwarden

Highlight • Settlement

Leeuwarden is not only the capital of the province of Friesland, it was also the European Capital of Culture in 2018! Leeuwarden is a wonderful city to stroll through: enjoy the picturesque canals and enjoy a snack and drink on one of the many cozy terraces. To experience even more culture, visit the Fries Museum in the center or admire the seven-meter-high work of art 'Love' by Jaume Plensa on the Zuidersingel.
