Haarlem

Cathedral of Saint Bavo 



I liked the size of the town and the big square in the center where it's completely car free.
It's feels great to walk around not worring about bikes or cars hitting you from behind 



17th century building at the church square


Inside of St.Bavo. world famous Christiaan Mülle pipe organ which was played by Händel in 1740 and Mozart in 1755 (when he was only 10 years old)





Gravestones make up the entire floor.. Spooky.. They have been there since the 14th century. We walked on them



Ship models donated by ship guild in 15th century



ceiling impressively adorned in wood panelling








buildings infront of the Frans Hals Museum
great architecture centre (for planning) at the end of the row of buildings
