Kinderdijk

Located in the Netherlands, Kinderdijk, is definitely worth a visit! It is about 30 minutes drive from Rotterdam. You can see many windmills there, as many of you might already know that windmill is one of Holland’s icons.

A windmill is pretty much a normal house and according to the tour guide , you can fit a family with up to 13 children in there! Can you imagine that? 13 Children!! I am sure that they did not have television back then! Windmills can be use to pump the water, to produce olive oil, to grind wheat into flour and corn into cornmeal, sawing wood, etc.

When you are there, make sure you do a night boat ride where you can see the windmills being lighten up in different colours (you can imagine how they look like from the picture above). The ride cost about €3.50 per person.

Tips: Kinderdijk can be a windy place, so make sure you have the right outfit and have your camera handy for some kodak moments.
