Zaanse Schans 荷兰风车村

Zaanse Schans around an hour by bus from Amsterdam town. The place you have to visit when you go to Netherlands. In summer you can see tulips. I love this place so much~~








5 steps from wood become wooden shoe.


The way to choose the right size of wooden shoes.


I was trying to wear and walk with wooden shoes. Quite nice, think of buy one, but I think I'm not gonna to wear it. So I only bought mini wooden shoes as souvenir.


The most ugly snowman I ever seen, maybe is a cat, whatever~
(Saw this "snow cat" in front of a restaurant) :p


This video show you how is the windmill working.

The problem with joining a guided tour is: I can't remember the place names very well.
