Things to do in Giethoorn

Giethoorn truly resembles a fairytale town, with more waterways than roads, and small boats moored in front of every house. Low houses with reed-roofed roofs line the waterways, their gardens meticulously manicured. Renting a boat and rowing yourself is the most relaxing way to experience it, slowly gliding under small bridges, with meadows and wild ducks on either side. The main street is somewhat commercialized, but turning into the side streets brings tranquility, with only the sound of oars paddling through the water. It's best to visit on a sunny day; the slippery roads can be quite inconvenient on rainy days.

Every small building in Giethoorn All have their own unique style or reed roof or a window frame shaped like an eye Some have beards Some have extra eyelashes ⋯ In such a fairy tale atmosphere Escape the hustle and bustle of the city at all It's like a journey through time and space Before closing time Visited the farm museum It is said This is the richest place in Giethoorn It is also the home of the last farmer in the spacious hall Place many old daily utensils clothing flora of the area animal ⋯ Tells the history of the city and community development trajectories Because there is a Chinese tour guide So it’s very clear and vivid But the fee is a little high local grandparents Sitting outdoors in traditional clothes Make fresh waffles Although a little expensive You still have to show your support~ Travel information: Giethoorn in the Netherlands was originally a coal mining area Coal miners discovered large quantities of sheep horns during mining operations centuries ago Therefore it is named after it Two hours from Amsterdam by train It is recommended to leave directly from the airport after getting off the plane.

You can see many different boats getting on and off here! There are locals there too!

There are several ways to visit Bowen Wilder Lake. Rowing is one of them. There are also hand-paddled and electric boats. Hand-paddled boats can also be paddled to the more residential river channel, which is quite interesting. The water is very calm and clear, very beautiful~

The museum was beautiful and very interesting. I really enjoyed the visit and loved the overall experience. Highly recommended!
