Anyone visiting South Holland cannot miss a visit to the windmills of Kinderdijk. Admission to the site is free, but the tour of the windmills is not. You can also see all the sights in one go by purchasing a combination ticket. This also includes a boat trip along the canals. Unlike the windmills of Zannse Schans, the windmills of Kinderdijk have retained their authenticity. They don't appear kitschy or tourist-oriented at all, and they aren't overcrowded. However, you're almost never completely without tourists. A visit in the late afternoon is recommended, as most of the crowds are over by then. Incidentally, there are now a limited number of parking spaces in front of the entrance. The cost is just under €10 per day! There is also a shuttle bus to the nearest village, which costs the same amount, including the parking fee.

The Maastunnel is the oldest submerged tunnel in the Netherlands. It connects the banks of the Nieuwe Maas in Rotterdam. The tunnel consists of four tubes: two for cars, one for cyclists and one for pedestrians. Construction started in 1937 and was completed in 1942.

Kinderdijk is a village in the Dutch province of South Holland, located in the Alblasserwaard. The village is part of the municipality of Molenlanden. Kinderdijk is located at the place where the Noord and the Lek meet. The place is mainly known for the Kinderdijkse mills.

Even without a ticket you can walk here to your heart's content...

Beautiful location between water and windmills...

For me, it was a unique experience to “cross under” the river by bike under the Maas in a tunnel. The impressive entrance to the tunnel, the old wooden structures, the smell - an experience that you should simply take part in - - and surprisingly, the whole thing is free

I did this route on a Sunday afternoon in nice weather. Enjoy a drink with friends afterwards in the beautiful Veerhaven district of Rotterdam. Then take the Waterbus from Erasmus Bridge station to Merwedekade-Dordrecht. That is 1 hour of sailing. Wonderfully relaxing. Lots to see. Beautiful evening photos! And in 5 minutes I was back home in Dordrecht.

The Kinderdijk mills are one of the most famous sights in the Netherlands. They are a group of 19 wind pumps that are used to pump the water from the polders to make the land suitable for agriculture. The mills pump the water into the Nieuwen Waterschap, which flows into the river Lek. They were built in the 18th century after the older canal systems proved ineffective. The waterways, which also separate the polders, also divide the mills into several groups: To the west of the Nieuwen Waterschap, on the Nederwaard polder, there are eight round red brick mills, all built in 1738. On the Overwaard polder to the east there are eight octagonal wooden mills right on the waterway and three similar mills a little further inside the polder. Except for one of the mills in the “polder interior” (1761), all were built in 1740. On the Blokweer polder, southeast of Kinderdijk, there is a single wooden mill, the Blokweerse Molen. It is also known by the nickname “De Blokker”. The year the original mill was built is unknown. “De Blokker” has been the victim of fires several times, most recently in 1997. Since 2001, the mill has been rebuilt and restored. This mill is also the only one in the group where the paddle wheel is outside the mill and is therefore visible from the outside. Nowadays, pumps (first diesel pumps, now electric pumps) have taken over the work of the mills. Nevertheless, the mills are still very popular. They are put back into operation on special occasions, such as the Landelijke Molendag (National Mill Day, see also Vereniging De Hollandsche Molen). One of the mills on the Nederwaard Polder can even be visited from the inside, but some others are privately owned and used as residential buildings.
