8 hours in the city
17 May 2021
Delft once was one of the biggest cities in The Netherlands (around 1560) and is known for Delft Blue, Johannes Vermeer who painted the Girl with the Pearl Earring and The Milkmaid here and the amount of students who arrive to TU Delft with the hopes of becoming the next Rem Koolhaas (it’s one of the best architectural schools in the world).
Let’s see what caught my eye during a day in Delft, combining important landmarks with the best and latest spots:
