The best time to come to The Netherlands is with no doubt spring!
We went searching for tulips in the beginning of April, but it was still not their time, so we decided to go to Kinderdijk!
Kinderdijk is a UNESCO Worl Heritage Site, since 1997, with 19 windmills!
It's in the south of Holland near Dordrecht.
Basically, these windmills were used to drain the water from the canals to protect the fields against flood.
It’s so peaceful! I really loved it the first time I went and I wanted to return because in the winter the mills are closed to visits.
For more information go to: www.kinderdijk.com/historie.htm or google it! :D
When you go to Kinderdijk, go also to Dordrecht. It was the first Dutch city!
For me that never went to Venice, it seems like you’re there when you go to the centre.
I liked the town, but I wouldn't want to live there, no offence, but whereas in other towns you always see the streets crowded; in Dordrecht you don’t see anyone in the streets.
