Presentation transcript:

The Netherlands is a European country, bordering Germany to the east and Belgium to the south. The people, language, and culture of the Netherlands is referred to as "Dutch". It is a parliamentary democracy organised as a unitary state. With over 16 million people, it's a densely populated country with its gorgeous capital Amsterdam being just one of many interesting cities. It is famous for its painters, windmills, clogs and notoriously flat lands. A modern European country today, it preserved its highly international character and is known for its liberal mentality. As a founding member of EU and NATO, and host to the International Court of Justice in The Hague, the Netherlands is at the heart of international cooperation. Its small size, welcoming attitude to travellers and many sights make it a unique and fairly easy to discover destination and a great addition to any European trip.

The Delta Works is a series of construction projects in the southwest of the Netherlands to protect a large area of land around the Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt delta from the sea. The works consist of dams, sluices, locks, dykes, levees, and storm surge barriers. Delta Works have been declared one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Kinderdijk is situated in a polder in the Alblasserwaard at the confluence of the Lek and Noord rivers. To drain the polder, was built a system of 19 windmills around This group of mills is the largest concentration of old windmills in the Netherlands. The windmills of Kinderdijk are one of the best-known Dutch tourist sites. They have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.

Rotterdam is a vibrant city with many exciting attractions such as Spido harbour tours, the Euromast panorama tower. Rotterdam is also a great destination for shopping with a big market square with fresh produce, flowers and cheese.
