Amersfoort

2 weeks ago we visited the beautiful city of Amersfoort.  Actually, we just wanted to go cycling somewhere, I ran my eyes over  Google maps, and chose this city. Amersfoort is 40 kms away from us. Lately, I worry less about distances, I feel more fit and trained after the trips, we had already achieved.

I  love travelling from town to town, enjoying the fresh air, cycling along green areas. It is so peaceful.



The medieval city centre was wonderful. I love the old buildings with calm canals running next to them. Where you see canals, boat cruise companies also appear.  I guess, they are the most significant suppliers of the Dutch tourism. It is a nice way to discover a city from the water, and this country has all the potential for it.

Back to Amersfoort... The city has a nice zoo, which is open every single day of a year. We decided to skip it, and chose to just roaming in the old streets.


The most popular sight of Amersfoort is the Koppelpoort medieval gate. It was so lovely. It brought us back to the middle ages. 



As the time flies, we gain more and more wonderful memories to remain us from the years we have spent in the Netherlands. We are truly blessed. :)
