💙 Delft: The Porcelain Capital of the Netherlands
Just a 20-minute train ride from The Hague lies the charming town of Delft—home to tilted churches, world-famous blue pottery, and Vermeer’s legacy! Here’s why it stole my heart: ⛪ Must-See Spots 🔹 Oude Kerk (Old Church) – Its tower leans 2 meters (!) due to a *9-ton bell* installed centuries ago. 🏛️🤪 🔹 Nieuwe Kerk (New Church) – Climb the spiral stairs for 360° views of Delft’s red roofs and canals! 🦉 🔹 Vermeer Centrum – Though I skipped it, I hunted for spots matching his "View of Delft" painting—my photo came close! 🎨 🔹 Royal Delft Museum – Where Dutch blue pottery (inspired by Chinese porcelain!) shines: A ceramic "Night Watch" (Rembrandt in blue!) Miffy-themed pottery—cutest China-Netherlands crossover ever! 🐰💙 🥞 Foodie Moment Tried Dutch pancakes (like savory crêpes with bacon & cheese)—smoky bacon balances the richness perfectly! 🥓🧀 #Delft #Netherlands #BluePottery #Vermeer #DutchArt #TravelEurope #Miffy #HiddenGems
