WHAT IS DOM UNDER?
The secrets of Utrecht’s Dom Square have been revealed. The entrance to the underground space where you can view 2,000 years of Dutch history is in the middle of Dom Square. A route under the centuries old square can be followed with a special torch to discover all sorts of archeological finds. History literally springs to life as the torch activates stories and animated films.

Only at 3 minutes walking from the Central station Utrecht you can see the famous Domtower. Climbing the Dom Tower is a wonderful opportunity to explore the city of Utrecht in an entirely different way! Via 465 steps (there is no lift), a guide will take you to the top of the highest church tower in the Netherlands. Halfway there, you will get a view of the historic bells with a total weight of no less than 32,000 kg. One floor higher is the magnificent 17th-century Hemony carillon. The tower galleries at 70 and 95 metres provide a spectacular view of the city and province of Utrecht.

Parks & Nature
Het huis of kasteel Rhijnauwen is gelegen op de rechteroever van de Kromme Rijn, ongeveer twee kilometer ten westen van de Utrechtse plaats Bunnik.
In het 18e-eeuwse landhuis zijn aan de achter- en linkerzijde delen van een ouder huis te zien, dat hier eerder moet hebben gestaan. Het huis vormt het middelpunt van een uitgestrekt, drukbezocht landgoed, waarover gewandeld kan worden door prachtige lanen. Sinds 1933 is in het landhuis een jeugdherberg gevestigd; dit is de oudste jeugdherberg van Nederland. Dicht bij de jeugdherberg staat Theehuis Rhijnauwen, een van de grootste trekpleisters van het gebied. Vandaar uit kun je fijne wandelingen of fietstochten maken.
