If you really want to enjoy the feeling of being on vacation, I recommend staying overnight at Huis Ten Bosch like I did.
Stepping into Huis Ten Bosch during the day feels like being transported to Europe in an instant. The spacious streets and elegant architecture make you feel as though you’re in a small town in another country. Since the park has nine themed areas, I recommend taking a leisurely canal boat ride to see the scenery as soon as you enter, then heading to the famous Pinocchio Pizza in Tower City for some delicious oven-baked pizza. If you visit in summer, don’t miss the dazzling golden fields of blooming sunflowers. If you’re worried about getting tired from walking, you can also rent a bicycle to get around.
As evening falls, the tower’s nighttime light show begins, followed by an impressive fireworks and drone show. Brilliant lights and shadows weave across the night sky, bringing the romantic atmosphere to its peak. After the show, you can stroll through the Art Garden and admire the dazzling sea of lights in the Kingdom of Light.
Because the park is so large and there are beautiful views everywhere, I chose to stay at the Watermark Hotel inside the park so I could fully experience this beautiful resort without feeling pressed for time. After watching the spectacular nighttime light show, it was just an easy walk back to the hotel to rest, saving me the exhaustion of traveling back and forth. It’s definitely the most perfect and comfortable accommodation arrangement for thoroughly enjoying Huis Ten Bosch.
