Dutch Countryside
Photographer: Eugene Brill

The Dutch countryside has special meaning to me. My ancestors went to South Africa from Holland. At Zaanse Schans village you can get a taste and discover the surrounding Dutch countryside and its wonderful windmills. Quintessential Dutch! Travel through idyllic landscapes crisscrossed with canals, see authentic wooden houses and old-fashioned cheese making demonstrations in Volendam. Watch a shoemaker make wooden Dutch clogs in Marken, and capture photos of windmills in the picturesque village of Zaanse Schans.
