RE: Magical Evening in Leiden, Netherlands - Nostalgische kerstmarkt ( Christmas Market)

in Worldmappin7 hours ago

Heya! No, I was in Leiden almost 20 years ago, and I lost the majority of my photos when my camera fell in the canals.🤣
Occasionally I mention Leiden when I find the odd photo.
I agree, you don't need to go to Amsterdam when you're in Leiden because Leiden is such a vibrant city.
I hope to revisit sometime:)))
Enjoy the rest of the day!

Damn, that's actually a long time ago. Back then I am guessing everything was different and much more calmer. Must be a nostalgic moment for you when you recall your stay in Leiden.

I think it's time for you to revisit the city again, it will be nice to meet you in person also if I stay in NL...

Thanks, Milly once again for sharing your story, I wish you a lovely week...

Everything was different and much more calmer.

It sounds like everything has changed.
Even Amsterdam used to be pretty relaxed:)

Now Ams is very crowded, especially the old city center, Dam Square area, and some spots are overcrowded and pickpocket issues...Even last 3 years, things changed drastically...I guess after COVID-19, the culture of Amsterdam changed completely... But still, the city is beautiful...
