Giethoorn is a Dutch city famous for its canals of extraordinary beauty, where waterways cross each other diagonally. Located in the east of the country, this fairy tale of a city is a travel route equipped with narrow canals, Dutch houses, and wooden bridges. The houses built on the islets can be reached by bridges and boats. As local people and visitors often prefer boats and bicycles for transportation, there is almost no motor vehicle traffic in the city as in other canal cities.
