s-hertogenbosch aka Den Bosch, Holland

SO many people I have encountered in Holland have raved about Den Bosch, this city that is about 20 minutes from Eindhoven. They kept telling me I should go visit, its totally worth it, and its so beautiful, etc etc etc. So, after some googling on den bosch and things to do/see there... i decided to check it out. Well.... after visiting...I have to say... I was deeply disappointed. Yes of course it's a nice city, there are canals there, and it looks more "traditional dutch"... but I guess when people kept telling me it was so "beautiful", they just meant more beautiful than eindhoven...which is actually almost any city... HAHA (well because Eindhoven is such an industrial city there isn't much feel of "typical dutch" here).

Nevertheless, I did enjoy my trip, saw the famous "st john's cathedral" in the city centre, walked around, saw some museums, did some shopping, and of course took some pictures. Enjoy!
