Kinderdijk is a UNESCO world heritage site, located only 16 kilometres from Rotterdam. The site contains 19 pristinely preserved windmills. The windmills were erected in the 1600s to drain the Alblasserwaard polders, which had suffered floods since the 13th century. The beauty of the area and rich history of the unique Dutch water management system is largely what makes it a must-see site of the Netherlands.
