The Netherlands is extremely flat, and water is everywhere: lakes, rivers, (natural) ports and canals of many types, and of course the North Sea. In fact, about half of the country lies below sea level, and is protected from flooding by dykes and other constructions. By the coast there are beautiful dune landscapes and big, sandy beaches, but apart from that, the densely populated country is not famous for it's wild nature. |
