One of my favorite tourest-esque activities in Utrecht is climbing the Dom Tower. This tower is the highest structure in the city. There was a rule, which I believe still stands, where no building was permitted to be taller. The Dom has 465 tiny, curving stone steps. My calf muscles are still sore from the last time I climbed, a few days ago. The best part is not the winding steps. The best part is the view. Unlike many church towers, the Dom lets you climb to the VERY top and peer over. Enjoy the view.
