Zaanse Schans Windmills, The Netherlands

Zannse Schans is a tourist attraction about 20 Km (12 miles) northwest of Amsterdam. It is kind of a “living museum,” with shops and stores dedicated to past businesses in the Netherlands. But the real draw for tourists are the multitudes of windmills that have been moved on to site over the years.
