👞“Clogs and Windmills — A Fairytale Walk Through Zaanse Schans”

#hellohalloween At Zaanse Schans in the Netherlands, the famous Dutch wooden shoe (clog) comes to life in a setting that feels straight out of a fairytale. This charming village, just outside Amsterdam, is filled with traditional windmills, green wooden houses, and cobbled paths that take you back to the 18th century. Visitors can step into a wooden shoe workshop to watch craftsmen carve and paint clogs by hand — an art passed down through generations. You can even try on a pair yourself and take cheerful photos in front of the colorful clog displays. The air smells of fresh waffles and cheese from nearby shops, adding to the cozy village feeling. Around the corner, spinning windmills and grazing sheep complete the perfect Dutch countryside scene. At sunset, the reflections in the river make the whole place glow with magic. Zaanse Schans truly captures the spirit of old Holland, where simple traditions still shine like a fairytale come alive.
