A tour of the city and nature from Haarlem

Your route starts at Carlton Square Hotel, with a cup of coffee at Bar & Kitchen Zocher. The old center of Haarlem is definitely worth a visit, it has been designated a protected cityscape. The tour takes you from the city through the Kennemerduinen, where you can learn all about it in Duincentrum de Zandwaaier. Then it is time to go into town and see Huis Te Zaanen. This national monument was originally a glory. There was once a castle behind it and the hus functioned as a gatehouse. Because Willem Zaanen was part of a plot to murder Floris V, the house was destroyed in retaliation in 1296. Finally, nature and environmental center Ter Kleef promotes nature and environmental awareness of Haarlemmers through educational activities.
