사우스 홀랜드‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

It's one of the largest estates in South Holland: De Horsten Estate. It's actually a merger of the three estates Raaphorst, Eikenhorst, and Ter Horst. De Horsten was founded in the mid-19th century and came into the hands of the Royal Family at the beginning of the 20th century when Wilhelmina purchased the estate. The original houses no longer exist, but several (out)buildings remain, including the former hunting lodge. You can now enjoy a cup of coffee or tea there. Most of De Horsten Estate is now open to walkers.

For tulip lovers and fans of beautiful, flowery parks, a visit to Keukenhof in the Netherlands is a MUST. Between mid-March and the end of May, tulips of various varieties bloom there.

Opens at 9:00 am

Here you see the characteristic Scheveningen Water Tower, located in the dunes near Scheveningen (Pompstationsweg 327, The Hague)

The water tower is located in the Oostduinen dunes near Scheveningen, near Pompstationsweg. It is a national monument. Designed in the Eclectic style by architect Bert Brouwer and civil engineer Theodor Stang, it was built in 1874 by the Hague Dune Water Company.

Great scenery, but bad bike path.

In the province of South Holland lies the island of Goeree-Overflakkee, home to the Kwade Hoek nature reserve. The name is said to refer to the treacherous currents and sandbanks in this area, where many ships sank in the past. This relatively new dune landscape is a mosaic of damp dune valleys, salt marshes, and mudflats, with a very unique flora and fauna.

It's beautiful there, but I wouldn't go on April 12 because of the crowds and road closures for the flower parade.
