While in Utrecht for the Thirty-First International Conference on Learning, check out Cathedral Square

While in Utrecht for the Thirty-First International Conference on Learning, you can take a walk around Cathedral Square!

Like many historic cities in the Netherlands, Utrecht has numerous old public squares. By far the most important, though, is Cathedral Square (Domplein, or "Dom Square"). Named after the magnificent St. Martin's Cathedral, it's a lovely space to visit, especially for the many attractive old buildings that frame it.

In addition to the cathedral and the mighty Dom Tower (Domtoren), here you'll find the attractive (and colorful) Utrecht University building, as well as the Utrecht Tourist Information Office, a great place to begin your exploration for its helpful staff and useful tourist resources.

It's also here you'll find one of the city's newest attractions, a unique new exhibit called DOMUnder. As the name suggests, this fascinating self-guided tour takes you underneath Cathedral Square on an exciting journey that reveals the remains of the city's rich 2,000-plus-year history.
