Then it is time to discover the Dutch countryside, driving to historic open-air museum Zaanse Schans: here you will see the typical Dutch windmills, waterlands, cheese makers and clog factories up close, and learn about the region’s rich history. Visit Zaanse Schans traditional wooden windmills and distinctive green wooden houses which were relocated there to recreate the atmosphere of an 18th/19th-century village. Here oil, paint, mustard, and paper were produced. We will spend about 2,5 hours at Zaanse Schans including a demonstration of wooden shoe making. A photo stop at the bank of Zaan River for the best panoramic view of all the windmills is of course included!
