    Hiking

    The Venus Fountain is the symbol of love, fertility and birth. Venus is the Roman goddess of love and beauty. She was born from the foam of the sea. The Venus Fountain fits well in the palace garden, because the goddess Venus is the protector of gardens and vineyards. But in the 17th century everyone understood that it was also a reference to Princess Mary, who travelled from England across the sea to the Netherlands to marry stadtholder William III.

    Venus, the Roman goddess of love, is the protector of gardens and vineyards. It is obvious that there is a Venus fountain in the palace garden. But back in the 17th century, everyone understood the reference to Princess Mary. Venus, the foam-born = Mary travels by sea from England to Holland to her husband Willem III. You have to come up with it first 🙂.
