Utrecht, Netherlands
Amsterdam is not the only city in the Netherlands, and despite the huge popularity the capital enjoys, there is another city famous for being super happy. Travel south to Utrecht, and you will find everything you would ask for in a big city but with that blissful, small-town feel. With friendly, welcoming residents and canals as well, Utrecht has become a favored spot to bike, walk, or just hang around. The central canal is also the perfect place to enjoy a leisurely stroll before popping into one of Utrecht’s many cafés and pubs for a drink or meal.
