A terrific—and free—museum. It tells the story of our species and its place in history, going into great detail about the similarities and evolution of our common descendants.

I especially enjoyed learning about neanderthals and dispelling several myths.

The science exploratorium is in the same area. It does a great job explaining how magnets work, where superconductors come into play, and how it all comes together in the CMS and other groundbreaking research being done right here in Switzerland.

Terrific cafe, a hidden gem in the touristy city! Nestled between two residential blocks, it's a quiet neighborhood with a tranquil terrace and ample indoor seating.

We had the phenomenal goat cheese and beetroot bagel, absolutely delicious with fresh ingredients. The cheesecake is New York style and simply perfect. Excellent coffee with choice of milk.

There's a little shop for wine, beer and soda.

Highly recommended!

Fantastic cafe with cheerful, friendly staff. Lovely ambiance, nice quiet music, cute outdoor seating.

Coffee is phenomenal and I might recommend the mozzarella sandwich for lunch. We'll certainly return regularly!

Contributed by locals, this is an ongoing project to crowd-source a poem in the streets of Utrecht.

Beautiful park for a nice walk, lush woods in the summer and white landscapes in the winter. Nearby some lovely attractions, all in walking distance, but for the fit! Visit the Waterlinie Museum, Museum Oud Amelisweerd and Fort Rhijnauwen.
