Utrecht is the fourth largest city in the Netherlands. It takes 30 minutes to get there by train from Amsterdam and only 12 euros. The city has a lot of interesting architecture examples, and this post is about one of them: The Utrecht University that opened in 1636.
Traffic on the territory of the university is limited to bicycle lanes and lanes for public transport.
Dormitory that has 377 rooms.
The building is dated 2008, due to its unusual design it is called "confetti".
One more dwelling house
Library
Bicycles, some of them are abandoned...
Red lanes are for bicyclists.
La Capanna - project of temporary dwelling for students. The houses were built in 2004 and had to be taken down in 5 years but the project was prolonged till 2013. Today foreign students live here. Each block has a little kitchen, a room and a shower cubicle. Nearby is a big field where sheep are grazing.
In all other aspects Urecht is a cute old city.
