Just for that case and the beautifull weather today, 8 graden celcius. Whe want to walk today. Whe began at our house and walked thru Purmerend to the Ringvaart a chanel that is around Purmerend. Whe walk to Kwadijk and make a turn there to the ZuidOost Beemster, a amall walk but very nice thru the country with beautiful small Farms and other beuatiful houses with nice gardens.
 

The Beemster Polder, dating from the early 17th century, is is an exceptional example of reclaimed land in the Netherlands. It has preserved intact its well-ordered landscape of fields, roads, canals, dykes and settlements, laid out in accordance with classical and Renaissance planning principles.

  The Beemster Polder is a masterpiece of creative planning, in which the ideals of antiquity and the Renaissance were applied to the design of a reclaimed landscape.
The innovative and intellectually imaginative landscape of the Beemster Polder had a profound and lasting impact on reclamation projects in Europe and beyond. Criterion iv The creation of the Beemster Polder marks a major step forward in the interrelationship between humankind and water at a crucial period of social and economic expansion.
