This time: The Netherlands!
So tiny and though so great, an ever thriving country from the East Indies times in the Golden age to an important main hub in Europe. Mostly under sea level, the Dutch got skilled winning land and fighting water, which led to engineering masterpieces like the Delta works. A modern community where the cities are big cosy villages, people go by bike, eat stroopwafels and cheese. In the Netherlands whether you like traditional mills and clogs or mingle in easily in the hotchpotch of cultures, Gogh and Rembrandt, or a stroll along the dikes, you won’t be bored.
In this episode Rotterdam, Hotel New York, it’s giant port, city life and the Euromast, an airborn view over the city, The flower capital of Lisse, pittoresque Delft and the porcelain of Royal Blue Delft, Zaanstad en the historic site of De Zaanse Schans and last but no least the engineering miracle of the Deltaworks.
