Kinderdijk - August 03, 2006



Uncle Joe brought us to the windmills.


Took tram, underground tube and the bus. Journey lasted 1 hour plus.
I am impressed with the modern facilities offered by city of Rotterdam.
It is noticibly efficient and cleaner than most cities I have visited lately.

It is located at a place called Kinderdijk and it is a UNESCO Heritage site.
Given the same status as Borobodur or St Emilion. It has 19 mills within the area.

It was raining on and off but the trip was memorable and unique.

Took a boat ride on the canal and we visited a windmill.

Managed to see the inside of a mill and how people actually lived in it.

Most of the mills were built in year 1760's and they are still functioning.

Amazing....
Ended our visit by having hot chocolate drink at the souvenir shop.

Sedap....kat luar sejuk...

  1. I think that was the BEST hot chocolate drink I ever had in my life.

    MaMa would agree with me...
