We took a waterbus to the famous Kinderdijk, a UNESCO world heritage which we could walk around and see the windmills group.

Nineteen windmills for the nineteenth centuries! Kinderdijk is below sea level and instead of fighting the wind and the water, the windmills have been working hard to keep the area dry. It’s nice to see the working windmills in Kinderdijk.

After walking around the Kinderdijk area for a few hours, we took the water bus back to Rotterdam. Just in time to see the sunset, it was gorgeous.

A large market place with different food stalls. Our friend introduced the fish, herring, to us. It is a fresh fish that you could eat raw, like sashimi in japan. The local eat the whole fish by putting it in the mouth (without cutting) but we had it cut as it is easier to handle. It tastes very fatty and juicy, like the Toro in Japan.
