Souvenirs shops in Delft!

From a heated terrace of a restaurant on the
Markt in Delft! On the terrace you will
get a warm fleece blanket to put over your knees
to stay warm when sitting outside the restaurant.

Just one of the many souvenirshops
in Delft. Delft is well-known for its old buildings,
dating back to 1400, old canals, a lot of all kinds of
restaurants, vintage shops, chocolateria and
of course the Delft Pottery, http://www.delftpottery.com/,
where you can see original entirely handpainted
Delftware of certified origin.
You also can follow a workshop:
Paint your own Delft blue tile during a workshop!
During the workshop which will take place in their
characteristic painter's room, a professional
painter will guide you through the process of
painting a Delft tile.

Swans and ducks in Delft!

On a cold autumn day the swans and ducks in Delft are very lucky. They are feeded every day by a lot of people, who are shopping in the little streets.
