A detailed introduction to the tourism of Yangjiao village in the Netherlands

The Netherlands is a developed country, and many people want to travel to the Netherlands. Is it worthwhile to go to Yangjiao Village in the Netherlands? I have compiled a detailed introduction of Yangjiao Village in the Netherlands here, hoping to help you.

I. Overview

In the DeVuitton Nature Reserve in the Netherlands, there is a place called Yangjiao Village which has a history of more than 700 years. Because everyone lives by the pillow river, there is no car road in the village, only bicycles and boats, which is similar to Venice, a water city in Italy, so some people compare it to Venice in the Netherlands.

However, compared with Venice, it is less noisy and over-commercialized by tourists, and replaced by rare tranquility and comfort, which is more like the paradise described by Tao Yuanming.

Second, Yangjiao Village was named after Yang Jiao.

/kloc-in the 0/8th century, a group of coal miners settled here. Because it is sandy soil, it can't be cultivated, so it can only develop mining. This group of workers not only dug coal, but also dug up a lot of "horns". After identification, it was found that these horns came from wild goats living around 10 century, and the name of "Yangjiao Village" has been passed down to this day.

In order to dig out more peat blocks and sell them to make money, residents keep digging up land and forming ditches. Later, it gradually formed the beautiful scenery of canals and waterways today. Rivers criss-cross the village, dotted with cabins.

The roofs here are all made of reeds, which are warm in winter and cool in summer, rain-proof and sun-proof. It is said that reed was used as a substitute before because poor families could not afford bricks and tiles, but now reed is a building material that rich people can afford, and its price is dozens of times that of bricks and tiles. So most high-income people, such as doctors and lawyers, live here, which is in sharp contrast with the past.

Every family here has a boat, deliver the courier by boat, and take a gift boat to the church for a wedding. The best way to visit is to rent a flat-bottomed wooden boat to shuttle through this quiet village. Wandering aimlessly in the village stream, you can have a panoramic view of the picturesque scenery on both sides, watching the shadows of trees shake and the flowing water gurgle. The air is full of the smell of earth renovation, and it smells like flowers, as if it were in a paradise. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, I listened to the boatman telling the history here and accidentally crossed back to the Middle Ages.

Third, how to get there

Take the train to Steenwijk Station (about 2 hours from Amsterdam Central Railway Station); Transfer to Bus No.70 to Giethorndominee Hylkemaweg Station (about half an hour's drive, one bus every hour).

Yangjiao Village has both authentic country hotels and luxurious and exquisite hotels, where you can spend a comfortable night. However, due to the shortage of housing, it is best to book in advance. Whether renting a cabin and a small wooden boat in the camping area, or renting a bicycle to stroll among the boulevards, it is the closest way to nature, and you can easily enjoy life.
