The Zaanse Schans is 15 km north of Amsterdam, where the old buildings vividly depict Dutch life in the 17th and 18th centuries. In the windmill village of Zaanse, there are real houses, ancient shipyards, performances of making wooden shoes, and windmills... wood shoes are the most nationally crafts in the Netherlands, and also a national custom culture. The epitome of it. Nowadays, although the practical value of Dutch wooden shoes is greatly reduced, few people wear it, but tourists still love it for ten minutes and become a must-have souvenir~ Because the shape of wooden shoes is very cute, the whole looks like a boat. So the Dutch are reluctant to throw it away, sometimes making it into an ornament, and sometimes serving as a vase.
