The city through a black & white lens…
Black & White Amsterdam
Delft
I recently visited Delft: a very cute & cozy city situated right in between Den Haag and Rotterdam. Since I was planning to meet a friend for lunch in the afternoon and I was free that day, I decided to head over to the city a few hours earlier to wander around with my camera. Once I reached the main square were the city hall is and saw the high tower of the Old church right in front of me, I decided to climb it. It’s the highest tower in town, which means I had to climb 400 steps on the narrow spiral staircase to reach the top. Yup, I was pretty exhausted when I finally made it to the top, but the view was definitely worth it! It was a lovely experience to get a 360′ view of the whole city and spot some familiar sights from a bird’s-eye view…
Willemstad, Curaçao
Bon bini, Willemstad!
The capital city of Curaçao, sometimes also referred to as “Amsterdam of the western hemisphere”, is defintely one of the most colourful cities I’ve ever visited. Approximately 140.000 people are living here. The main districts of Willemstad, Punda & Ottrobanda are connected by the queen Emma bridge. The architecture of the buildings is mainly influenced by the Portuguese, and of course, Holland. Therefore, It was very interesting to explore the city and spot some similarities!
