Just a few photo's , I made about 100 of this beautiful old city, but I can always show some more later.The first photo is the old Town Hall that still is in use since about 1600 .
Then there is the new Church is also from about that time, This is a landmark in Delft and this is the church where our Royal family is entombed in the Royal cript.
Probably everybody knows Delft is the city of `Delft Blue` Here you see just a few of the many little souvenir shops on the large market place.Look at the beautiful, all different facades .This was a soft wintery day so it was very quiet .It had been raining most of the day so not many tourists. In the summer Delft is full. And then this last photo is a wonderful piece of art. It is made of plexiglass and steel.It says this is the blue heart of Delft. Delft is blue.
For more My world photo´s go here.

Hi Riet,
These are wonderful photos of the historic town of Delft.
We have several pieces of Blue Delft from my husbands father who was born in Holland.
Thanks for sharing your photos, I enjoyed see this beautiful Town.
Hoi Riet,
Wat leuk dat jij ook naar Delft bent geweest! Leuke stad he?!! Je hebt mooie foto's gemaakt!
Lieve groet, Madelief
Beautiful buildings, and so many details architecture in them..
A very beautiful city -- and that sculpture is amazing.
This post made me want to visit the Netherlands again, and have coffee and cake in a snug little cafe...:)
Hoi Riet,
Prachtig het moderne blauwe hart van Delft. Het zijn zeer mooi foto's van een prachtige stad "Delft" ben er vroeger vaak geweest, een heerlijkheid om daar rond te struinen. Voor buitenlanders helemaal bijzonder met al die mooie geveltjes. En ja..... ik loop een beetje achter Riet, sorry, maar ik denk wel aan je hoor;~) weet op dit ogenblik niet of ik van voor of van achter leef, bij wijze van spreken dan. Heb het heel druk met de verhuizing van mijn moeder, a.s. maandag de 23e november is het dan zover. Dan nog wel veel drukte natuurlijk voordat alles weer is uitgepakt. Maar gelukkig dan maar vier kilometer hier vandaan en niet 130 kilometer, dat scheelt wel even.
Heerlijk avond verder,
Lieve groet Josephine
How lovely. I especially like those blue egg shapes! Way cool. Lane
Riet, this is part of the world I've never visited. I've missed something absolutely! Thanks for the view through your beautiful photos! :)
Such a beautiful city and your photos do it justice. I lve the row of houses like props for a model train set.
The blue sculpture in very interesting it is good that people can do thing that is only for art to look at.
It make the world richen that it does not alway need to be useful.
Have been looking around and seen the pink rose for you r first Todays flower and all the reflection on the canals.
Have a wonderful week Riet,
Maria Berg
