3️⃣ Fun Facts about The Netherlands 🤪
☀️Many times you will hear people refer to the Netherlands as Holland as if they both represent the same thing however that is not entirely true. In fact Holland only makes up 2 out of the 12 provinces in the country [North Holland (Noord-Holland) and South Holland (Zuid-Holland)].
💧The Dutch national anthem is the oldest one in known history. The ‘Wilhelmus’ as it is called, dates back to the 16th century and is a song where the Dutch king ironically claims his loyalty to the Spanish crown and speaks of his German roots.
🌳The Netherlands was one of the first six founding countries to join the European Union.
🍄”My experience in Amsterdam is that cyclists ride where the hell they like and aim in a state of rage at all pedestrians while ringing their bell loudly, the concept of avoiding people being foreign to them.”🍄
🍀Terry Pratchett
I like Amsterdam, especially cycling its awesome!
@almi, It's such a great city, in all aspects.
Indeed, in fact it's unique.
I have fond memories of Amsterdam, and Rotterdam. Nice post as always.

@wwwdotgotodotmu, I'd love to see Rotterdam one day, heard only great things.
It's a very liberal country, no need to tell you more, lots of fun. 😉
