Leiden is a city located in the Dutch province of South Holland. The city is home to one of Europe’s best, and Netherland’s oldest university - Leiden University. Leiden is also home to numerous museums, such as the Museum De Lakenhal, a history and art museum. For the kids, indulge them with a trip to the Naturalis Biodiversity Center, a natural history museum that has dinosaur bones. Otherwise, head over to cultural-themed museums, such as the National Museum of Ethnology, a museum displaying exhibits from cultures around the world; and SieboldHuis, a center for Japanese culture that has lectures, workshops, and exhibitions. Looking for something more interesting? Visit Corpus, a unique museum that is a giant, accurate model of the human body. Here, visitors can walk through the human body while listening to an audio tour. If you would like to visit a park, head over to Meijendel, a nearby park that has walking and cycling trails.
