Höjdpunkter: Rows of historic guild houses glow beautifully at night, reflecting on the water and creating a fairy-tale scene. Watching traditional boats pass by along the canal gives a real sense of local history in motion, as this area is still a lively hub for cultural events.

- Skip the overpriced souvenir shops and explore local markets for authentic finds.
