Friesland is the only province of the Netherlands that has its own language, namely Frisian. With the 649,957 inhabitants in the province, this language is also learned at school. This gives you a real holiday feeling by staying overnight in Friesland.
In Leeuwarden (or in the Frisian way Ljouwert) there is a leaning tower, just like in Pisa. Besides the tower, there are also many other cultural activities to see, not only in museums but also on the streets. Leeuwarden was even proclaimed European Capital of Culture in 2018.
