This ancient and historic city houses many buildings going back to the early Middle Ages. Until it was overtaken by Amsterdam in the Dutch Golden age, Utrecht was the most important city in the Netherlands. It was and still is the See of the Archbishop of Utrecht, the most important Catholic leader in the Netherlands. The University of Utrecht is the largest in the Netherlands. One of the unique features of the city is the wharf system in its inner canals. Before the city was fully canalized, parts of the Rhine River flowed through the city center. Most prominent of the historic buildings is the Gothic Cathedral of Saint Martin, the construction of which lasted for almost 200 year, beginning in 1254.

Great, unique place, with an amazing selection of whiskeys of all the price and flavor spectrums. Perfect atmosphere for casual conversation while enjoying (and learning about) whiskey. The tasting experience is a must if you want to explore (and/or learn). Highly recommended!

dB's consists of a large bar, a venue and 17 practice rooms for bands, fully equipped with amps and kits: Pearl, Ampeg, Fender, Marshall. You can rent them 7 days a week, from noon till midnight. In a relaxed atmosphere you can drink at the bar (12 beers on tap, 50 changing bottles), have some great veggie pubfood and hang out or enjoy fantastic live-bands for just a few bucks. From 60's trash to black metal and from postrock to alt country, all kinds of live music of mainly international bands, off the beaten track. 100 meters of Station Zuilen, 1 minute drive by train out rom Utrecht Central station. secret gem.
