Shopping in Utrecht

Hoog Catharijne is Utrecht's own indoor shopping center, located between the old town and Central Station. Here you can shop at more than 120 stores and grab a bite to eat at one of the 30 restaurants. Hoog Catharijne is open seven days a week, six of them until 8 p.m. and the only shopping center where, since the opening of the Singel in September 2020, you can sail your boat underneath!
