The neighbourhood is so idyllic that it feels like you’re on a film set.
A gem of a neighbourhood for those who love to delve into history and architecture. You’ll also find plenty of local boutiques here. The Pieterswijk, also known as the Pieterskwartier, is cosy and authentic. Stroll through centuries-old alleyways, shop in traditional craft shops and visit the Speckhofje, for example. The narrow streets allow you to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a while, without losing that Leiden city vibe.
