Utrecht, Netherlands — Part 7


Utrecht, Netherlands; taken 12:28 p.m.

I‘ve done this before, because I think it’s fun to see how much scenery one can run across on foot in a short period of time. So, today and Wednesday I’ll be posting Utrecht scenes with the time the shot was taken. That will give you an idea how much there is to see here.

Continuing our photographic tour of Utrecht, Netherland from 26 May 2022. I hope you are enjoying “Less Talk; More Show” format I’m using for this four-week series. Either way, please leave a comment and let me know.

As I mentioned previously in this series, Utecht‘s St. Martin’s Cathedral started out as a Catholic church before being turned over in 1580 to the Calvinist church during the Protestant Reformation. The church has a beautiful Gothic façade, complete with flying buttresses.

Now, let’s do some architecture-intensive street photography.
