🇳🇱 Beyond Miffy's Hometown｜Utrecht Paints Like a Masterpiece

Yes, Utrecht is famous as Miffy's birthplace—and I came hunting for bunny merch (success! 🐰). But after stuffing my bag with souvenirs, I wandered the streets... and fell under the spell of this golden autumn-lit city. ✨ Unexpected Magic The canals under sunshine? Straight out of a Dutch Golden Age painting. 🎨 Two canals stole my heart: 1️⃣ The Serene One – Lush greenery, dappled sunlight, and emerald reflections that belong in a Monet. 2️⃣ The Lively One – Vintage vinyl shops 🎵, antique coin dealers, thrift stores, and Victorian-era brick houses that felt plucked from London. (I accidentally spent 2 extra hours just soaking it in.) 🚂 Hidden Gem: The Railway Museum Just needed to kill time... but Spoorwegmuseum blew me away! 🚄 Not your average "old trains on display" museum—it’s immersive, interactive, and wildly fun. Perfect if you have 2 spare hours (but closed Mondays!). 🐰 Miffy Museum PSA The Nijntje Museum? Skip the tickets! Zero history—just a playpen for toddlers (adults without kids: save your €8!). Photo op at the entrance is enough. #NetherlandsTravel #Utrecht #HiddenGems #DutchCanals #TravelSurprises 🌍📸
