Excursion to the Delta works
This excursion shows you how the Dutch fight against the water. About half of the country is below see level (down to -10 meters). This means not only dikes and mills to pump the water back into the sea, but also huge constructions to safeguard the land against the water, while still keeping Rotterdam reachable for ships and preserving the unique salty water environment in the Oosterschelde, which is of high value for nature and oyster cult.
