Lovely town square

Delft Markt is the large town square located in the city of Delft famous for the blue coloured Delft Pottery. You will find the swuare sourounded by these pottery stores. The day we visited there was a market on. The famous Nieuwe Kerk (New Church) but ironicaly its not new and Stadhuis Delft (Town Hall) are located on the square. Its also surrounded by many cafes, restaurants and bars as well as retrail stores. This square is the hub of the city.

    History and
    Whoever comes to Delft automatically ends up on the market. Cozy square with a lot of history. The logical center of Delft with its (souvenir) shops, many terraces and a variety of dining options. With the Nieuwe Kerk on one side and the historic town hall on the other, you have an ideal backdrop for enjoying on one of the many large terraces. There is always something going on at the market, such as a wedding in the town hall, tourists who want to visit the tomb of Willem van Oranje or the Oranges in the church.

    Cute but not wow
    Delft is a lovely city, it is good that everything is close, the central square is maybe 10 minutes away on foot from the train station. However I do not think that this city is a must do when in the Netherlands, as you can see everything in maybe 1 or 2 hours. I visited it as I was spending time in Rotterdam and had a lot of free time.
