You were at Woerden?! So awesome, you nearly passed our house. If you revisit I can show you a way into the vaults of the castle, there is a medieval prison cell and an original and rather unique oubliette (a dungeon/hole you can use to throw someone in and "forget" about them). You can also climb the windmill while it is operating and in one of the parking garages there is a Roman ship on display. There is some Roman stuff at the old city hall (museum) you passed, which has one of the only surviving medieval pillories in the Nethelands (at the right of the entrance at 2:50). Woerden was part of the Limes, the contours of the Roman castellum (castle) are drawn on the square near the old church.

A tip for Den Bosch is that the Bossche Bollen from Jan de Groot are sold all over the place, not just in their bakery. You can go to many of the cafe's and lunchrooms and get one, it will often be advertised on the signs.

It doesn't have grandiose structures like the ones in these cities, but it's a lovely old fishing town with a lot to see and do. It used to have its own university too, and throughout the city you can still find history regarding that, so it's not just any old fishing town...

About the (mini-)vlaaien: I told you that you should taste the real ones from a genuine Limburgse bakery! And I guess you noticed that the authentically made vlaaien are much better than the Multivlaai ones. Great! And the Bossche Bollen: of course you need to go to Den Bosch for the real ones! And ehm..... Next time could you visit Venlo? There's sooooo much to see there too (maybe you'd need a whole weeked to see everything, from the medieval castle in the northern village of Arcen with its beautiful castle gardens to the village of Steyl - Tegelen - south of the city center with lots of sightseeing locations. And of course the nice shopping area in the city centre. All within the municipality of Venlo)! I salute you for this great video!

You were so close to my town Oisterwijk. You really need to visit it. We are a top 5 beautifull village in the Netherlands according to the ANWB and we have the most beautifull tree of the Netherlands. From Den Bosch either take a train to Tilburg and transfer to a train to Oisterwijk or take the 140 bus to Tilburg from Den Bosch that stops in Oisterwijk. I personally really like our lovely forrests and lakes (vennen). We also have great restaurants, cafes and bakeries (Robert van Beckhoven, the famous baker from Heel Holland bakt lives here and has a bakery and café). There is also the EKWC which is an international renowned museum and workspace for ceramics, quite a few art galleries and we have a beautifull church designed by famous architect Berlage (who also designed the central station of Amsterdam).
