Especially great that there are so many nice shops in the area. The walks to the Muntkade and Park Oog en Al also often make my day. The house I live in is old and hasn't been properly maintained by the landlord for a long time.
Auto-translated to English by AIYou're a stone's throw from Utrecht Central, the largest train station in the Netherlands. If you walk further, you'll end up in Hoog Catharijne, a mega shopping centre where you can buy everything you're looking for. There's also the Munt, a wonderful historical spot with a beautiful view over the water.
