🍃 Beestenmarkt – A Hidden Haven in Delft
Tucked away in a leafy square is the Beestenmarkt, one of Delft’s best-kept secrets. Your guide Rob knows just the spot to sit under the trees. Around you, terraces bustle gently, with locals and visitors alike enjoying Delft’s peaceful pace.
Once an animal market, the Beestenmarkt is now a place for human connection — or quiet contemplation. Rob may lead a short guided breathing session here, helping you arrive more fully in Delft.
🐎 Paardenmarkt – Silence Beneath the Trees
Next, we walk mindfully to the Paardenmarkt, a tranquil square that most visitors to Delft miss. Once the site of horse trading, today the Paardenmarkt is an open space where children play and locals read in the shade.
Rob invites you to walk the Paardenmarkt slowly, barefoot if you wish. Feel the earth of Delft beneath your feet. Smell the summer air. The past is all around you, in the cobblestones, the stories, the stillness.
🧭 Oostpoort – Delft’s Iconic Gateway
As your mindful walk continues, you reach the Oostpoort, the last remaining city gate of Delft. With its fairy-tale towers and view over the canal, it’s one of the most photographed spots in Delft — but few see it in silence.
Rob invites you to sit by the water, near the Oostpoort, and simply observe. A boat glides by. Birds call. The wind rustles trees. In Delft, even stone gates can whisper.
🎨 Vermeer’s Delft – Art in Stillness
Johannes Vermeer, perhaps Delft’s most famous son, painted light like no one else. Walking through Delft with guide Rob, you begin to understand why. The soft morning light over the canals, the play of shadows on a wall — Delft is full of Vermeer’s moments.
At the Vermeer Centrum Delft, Rob helps you look slowly at a painting. Not to analyze. But to see. To feel. As Vermeer once did. As a mindful guide, Rob connects you to the artist’s world — which was, above all, the world of Delft.
