Parents and children walk hand in hand past the Sint Anthony Gasthuis on a sunny autumn day. The trees are colored orange-brown.

Autumn highlights

Shop 'til you drop

You can turn on the pedometer!

Is your mother nagging you that you watch too much television? Switch on that pedometer and go enjoy some shopping in Leeuwarden! In the cozy city center, you can hop from shop to shop. The best games at Spellekijn, the most beautiful clothes at Nenek or Tuttebelle, and the nicest toys… Real shopaholics can indulge themselves in Leeuwarden! Who would have thought that shopping could be so healthy? 

Brilliant Scavenger Hunt

From October 18th, you can go on a hunt for dazzling, shining, and sparkling disco letters in Leeuwarden! Letters are hidden in the windows of all sorts of fun shops in Leeuwarden. You can pick up your own stamp card at the Visitor Center, among other places. Scavenge, search, and discover until you drop, or until you have found all 10 letters (and thus collected 10 stamps!). Can you guess the right word too? Then you stand a chance to win awesome prizes. Don't walk, run to the Visitor Center. Three, two, one… Go!
