The city center of historic merchant city Leeuwarden is full of historic sailboats. We encounter Dutch Barges, Skûtsjes, Aaken, Schouwen, and many more interesting and beautiful historic sailing ships.

I'll also show you a little of Leeuwarden, which is a beautiful city in its own right. It's a Hanzestad, a merchant harbor from before Hollands golden age.

Leeuwarden is the capital of Friesland, the Netherlands. Friesland is considered the sailing province of the Netherlands (and perhaps the world).
