Camminghaburen: Residential District in Eastern Leeuwarden
When Leeuwarden expanded eastward from the 1970s onward, Camminghaburen was the result: terraced family homes, semi-detached houses, and apartment blocks arranged with green strips and parks in the suburban style of the era. About 11,500 people live in this quiet, family-oriented district of the Frisian capital.
The Wiarda state, a former estate, gave its name to one of the sub-neighbourhoods. The Van Harinxmakanaal runs along the northern edge. The Groene Ster recreation area, with a lake and event grounds, lies to the northeast. Bus connections reach Leeuwarden's city centre in minutes. Leeuwarden's centre is about 3 kilometres west, Drachten approximately 25 kilometres east.
