the canal with prices up to 30 euros or less especially for those canoes [Music] number two delft delft is a charming city located between rotterdam and the hague it's world famous for its blue and white pottery and for being the hometown of vermeer the painter who gave birth to the girl with a pearl earring delf's real charm however lies in the relaxed atmosphere which together with its gloriously preserved medieval old center and idyllic canals and its canals makes for an unforgettable day trip now from the hague to delft you can take the tram which is four euros each way and takes around 25 minutes but also 15 minutes to rotter down so it's a perfect place to be located on your trip to the netherlands number three kinderdike i'm probably saying that wrong but that doesn't matter because there are many things that make the netherlands the unique place that it is but nothing complements it better than the traditional dutch landscape then its picturesque windmills [Music] the country is full of them but the unesco protected 19 windmills are no doubt one of the most famous sites in the netherlands the monumental mills were built in the early 18th century to prevent flooding and keep the soil dry and the mill network has been a unesco world heritage site since 1997 so you should try to add this location on your list traveling to the netherlands as you get a real sense of dutch culture and history [Music] number four cheshire this is one of the favorites in the netherlands if you are in search of a quiet place for your trip with sunsets green waters and vast sand beaches you'll find it all on this small west island not to forget the little quaint villages the pastoral landscapes and the great local food and a part of the island is protected as one of the 20 national parks in the netherlands so when travelling to tesco just leave your car on the mainland as you won't need it on this island it's roughly two and a half hours away from amsterdam number five harlem often dubbed little amsterdam harlem has all the appeal of the capital city with none of the crowds and it's only 30 minutes away from amsterdam harlem with its many historical buildings and its beautiful old squares lies near the beach on the banks of the spana river [Music] it's wonderful to stroll through the narrow streets lined with the monumental buildings and wandering around

place [Music] number six ortano part living fortress our open air museum the tiny fortified village of ortana in the best of older region is one of the most unique places in the netherlands built in 1593 during the dutch revolt against spain star-shaped forts near the border with germany is an outstanding example of 16th century military architecture with cobbled medieval lanes and quaint brick houses and of course restored military barracks some of the places are people's homes so it might be confusing as well as public access but it's worth looking into before making your trip number seven utrex now i spent a long time here as one of the four times i went to the netherlands and it's actually one of my favorites the canals of uterex have two stories where centuries old dwarf sellers now serve as spots to enjoy food and drinks at water level something unique to enjoy the city you can also enjoy the towering churches and the cozy cafes or cycle around the city center it's one of the most bike-friendly cities in the world it's also the perfect place for history buffs with sites like the dom tower and the central museum offering glimpses into the country's past [Music] you're also very close to the famous castle and that's a bonus the names just keep getting easier number eight cauda besides lending its name to one of the most enduringly popular cheeses in the world gauda ranks among the oldest cities in the netherlands and still features many charming historical buildings such as the 16th century town hall but besides visiting just for the cheese market grauda basically lies in the center of four largest cities in the netherlands namely amsterdam rotterdam the hague and utrecht there are countless museums a working mid-will plenty of opportunity to rent bikes to those four big cities if you base your stay right here and that's plenty of things to do just in one location number nine bolan dong if you're planning a day trip from amsterdam then this could be a great option for you this picturesque fishing village is very popular for good reason it's filled with colorful wooden houses and bobbing fishing boats and seafood stalls dishing up fish and chips smoked eel and pickled herring piled higher with onions now who wouldn't want to go to a place like that you had me at fish and chips volandom is a real fisherman's village it's quaint but can be very overrun by tourists but its neighbor adam is a bit quieter markham is also a fisherman's town and another option other than bolando but it's also kind of crowded bus loads of tourists but i say take a chance number 10 zanza schons zanza schantz which kind of signs french is all about windmills visit this small museum village and step back in time the area is a representation of how life was in the 18th and 19th centuries you can visit the windmills and learn how they work and what they were used for there are also a handcraft workshops where you can see how clogs were made or sails for the ships although the area is very pretty it tends to be again quite touristy but there's a reason for that because it is so interesting but it's okay if you've never been before because it shouldn't
