#myhiddengems
Thanks to a friend who hosted me. I was in Hague for almost a week. And whike he showed me around over the weekends. I had the weekdays to plan a bunch of day trips. Also, the ones I didn't do while in Amsterdam. After a day of Delft. The next day trip was Leiden.
It may seem slightly offbeat at first. But as i explored it further. I could see that it offers a lot of things that may be Amsterdam does, minus a few touristy things. At the same time it does that with better prices and definitely a lot less people. You'd see a lot of windmills around and the usual serving of canals and churches.
Some parts ot the city also had a university town feel. I do remmeber visiting the university of leiden as part of my self guided trail. To make things easier there is an app you can download. Leiden has this self guided loop. You could do it at your own pace and in doing so you will cover over two dozen historical sights and attractions. Some interesting ones thatvi particularly recommend are Peiterskerk, the hortus botanical garden, the cobblestone lanes and the hofjes courtyard. Some of the other names beat my memory. But as you roam around, you'll see plenty more.
