The Netherlands has more bicycles than people, with approximately 23 million bikes for 17.5 million residents.
About one-third of the Netherlands lies below sea level, protected by an extensive system of dikes and dams.
Amsterdam's canals are just the beginning; the Dutch countryside is pure magic.
