Leeuwarden offers a wide variety of shops, from small boutiques and trendy pop-up stores to well-known chain stores. Shopping in Leeuwarden is truly an experience.
The largest shopping street in Leeuwarden is Nieuwestad, but there are also several smaller streets around Nieuwestad featuring Friesland specialty shops and unique boutiques. One such example is Kleine Kerkstraat, which exudes a cozy atmosphere. It's no surprise that this street has been voted "The Nicest Shopping Street in the Netherlands" multiple times.
