THERE ARE NO ROADS IN PARADISE LIKE IN GIETHOORN VILLAGE IN THE NETHERLANDS

This Village Without Roads Is Straight Out Of A Fairytale Book




If you ever wanted to live your own fairy-tale, you may want to consider moving to the village Giethoorn. Also known as “Venice of the Netherlands”, this magical village founded around 1230 is the kind most people could only dream of…

It has no roads or any modern transportation at all, only canals. Well, and 176 bridges too. Tourists have to leave their cars outside of the village and travel here by foot or boat by (usually by “whisper boats”, which have noiseless engines). So you can probably imagine how peaceful it is here (well, when it isn’t flooded with tourists, of course)… Even the village’s website says that “the loudest sound you can normally hear is the quacking of a duck or the noise made by other birds”. It’s like something out of a storybook.

Its first inhabitants found numerous peat deposits and dug many holes over the years

Eventually, these holes turned into lakes

The newly created islands were connected with more than 176 bridges

Which give the village a cozy fairy-tale touch…
