It is not the same thing, other languages usually have a 'correct' name for The Netherlands but people will still say Holland. Holland is only two provinces of the country, and Giethoorn is in neither.

Pls support my channel if u dont want to then its up to u

I'm pretty sure they had problems in the 1500s.

Technically the boats are the cars unless it has no engine. And boats with engine are actually noisier than cars. If it's has no engine, then they better be not doing an errand coz having a paddled boat ride is really slow and I've tried both. Regardless, transportation is crucial for any society. U can't have everything that u need all in your backyard. Sooner or later someone has to go from point A to point B. Animal as a mode of transportation is more sustainable (land animals like cows and horses). They don't consume fuel and they'll flexible in any terrain.

exactly! speaking from someone who had experienced traffic accidents twice (as a passenger), I definitely agree with you.

It's a tourist hotspot. I don't live really close to it but I still live in the Netherlands and I've been there a few times, usually it is pretty booming in tourists. During the summer, people from all over the place, during the winter, ice skaters (if the canals are frozen well enough). Ice skating there is awesome btw

Black Bean Noodles absolutely, a nice Place to live at (for me).

Those people are blessed to be born and live there..

Indians and Asians who dream of such places dont realise how boring, isolating and depressing these towns are in europe.. After 10 days in a place like that u would want to run back to your pollutted, noisy, overcrowded countries because the one big thing that's missing in europe is "life" there are hardly any people.. Loneliness kills u in these places..the locals are extremely aloof, quite racist and dont open up to strangers nor trust them at all. On top of it these places are horribly expensive even for the locals.. Indians have more spending power now as the cost of living in india is still ten times cheaper than anywhere in western Europe...in London a movie ticket costs £14 now... And parking your car in a mall costs £9...life isn't easy in europe its a dream but once u see it.. That dream becomes a nightmare..I would say a lot of Europeans are seriously depressed people they have very tough lives, uts difficult now to even find partners in europe.. Most Europeans cant afford a baby thats why their populations are declining and immigration going up.. Which is causing more problems..Weather doesn't help either when its always cold and raining. All these places are good to visit once but after a month u can get suicidal in such places when u realise the local Culture and people are very closed up in their own world and dont like outsiders at all..and anyway their world is quite depressing.. Look up the suicide rates in Netherlands...its a pretty life but not necessarily a happy one :)... Go to Thailand or goa or bali.. See how many white Europeans are desperate to live there now cuz its lively, cheap, friendly and fun. Europe is just a picture postcard / open air museum now... Nothing more really.

Mkts the grass if always greener on the other side.In my hometown there is a bunch of Jewish people who live by agriculture and most of natives want to come to the polluted capital for employment 😂

Carlouge I know all this very well, my reply was meant for non Dutch / non Eu people who think such places are great for them to move to, ive lived in europe and asia all my life so I know all the differences, issues etc.. Netherlands is nice and peaceful because its less populated..if one billion Asians moved to Netherlands I doubt it would still be nice and peaceful. These places are great for those who were born and raised there..for someone new they are impossible to integrate...and also impossible to immigrate.

@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath to be fair, german architecture and city planning was pretty good in the 30's

Well canals were invented by assyrians and most of the mechanics were perfected by persians and muslims before it was exported to Europe nkw most of the rivers that once ran in the middle east have dried up so u won't find many towns like this but they did exist

NOT a city. Small town or village. They even give you the number of boats and people.

@@travismailsa1 Not super peaceful though; the water is very close to the houses and hundreds and hundreds of boats pass your house everyday. This means thousands of tourists, with cameras, trying to have a sneak peek at what living there's like. The local government actually had to step in since a lot of Japanese tourists were climbing off boats to just walk through people's gardens and take pictures there (they probably didn't quite understand this whole 'privacy' thing). Also, what Don Quixote mentioned; it's a small town, definitely not a city, so it feels even more weird when there's all these tourists flooding into your everyday life.

During summer pretty busy. During winter there is no fuck to do.
