Deventer city view

Deventer is most beautiful when you view it from a distance. The city has a beautiful skyline that looms behind the IJssel. When you hear the word 'skyline', you don't immediately think of skyscrapers, but rather of a collection of buildings that instantly show the historic character of Deventer. There are two good places to enjoy this view. The view from the Wilhelmina Bridge is the most beautiful because of the light. It is best to walk this bridge on the northern side to get the right view. Another good viewpoint is from the left bank of the IJssel, at the place where the ferry moors.
