Kinderdijk, the hometown of Dutch windmills

#WinHongKongTickets I want to go to Hong Kong for a stroll In addition to going to Zaanse Schweinfurt, we also want to visit Kinderdijk. At the beginning, I always thought of it as "Dyke Kid". It was only after many reminders from experience that I remembered the correct name. I looked up the origin of the name of Kinderdijk on the Internet. Legend has it that during the great flood in 1421, a baby sleeping in a cradle drifted here, and since then people have called this place Kinderdijk. When you come to Kinderdijk on the outskirts of Rotterdam, you will deeply appreciate how the windmills, waterfront and reflections blend into one. The quiet country roads and the reflections of the windmills on the canals enhance the layered beauty, creating the most unforgettable scenery. With the development of technology, most windmills have been demolished. The Kinderdijk has been listed as a World Heritage Site, which is why it has been able to preserve 19 17th-century water-drawing windmills. It is unique and is a cultural heritage of the Netherlands, and also marks a miracle in the history of Dutch water conservancy. It is enough to come here once, because the journey takes too long. First, take the train from Amsterdam to Rotterdam Railway Station, then take the subway to Zuidplein Station, and finally take the bus. Life only comes once, so I must keep it in mind. There are many attractions in Zaanse Schweinfurt, but none of them is as stunningly beautiful as Kinderdijk. The weather was average when I came that day, and it was so beautiful. When the weather is fine, I can imagine the reflection of the windmill reflected on the water, which is more like a landscape painting, like the simple tranquility between heaven and earth. I can stroll along the path and appreciate the beauty of the windmill.
