What travelers say:

The village of Goathorn is located in a natural reserve called De Wieden in the north-west of the Netherlands, about 120 km from Amsterdam. It is called the "green Venice of the north", and the town is like the fairy tale described in the blue sky and green grass, the stream, a quiet and peaceful look, attracted many tourists. It is said that in the eighteenth century, a group of coal miners settled here, digging out many horns underground, hence the name "Yangjiao Village". The residents of Yangjiao Village still maintain traditional tapered roofs, all made of reeds. These unique reed houses, mostly located by the river, are connected by a small wooden bridge on the other side. Each house is a carefully designed artwork, not only the roof, windows, doors, but also the sculptures on the lawn are realistic and leisurely. Originally a reed house built by poor people because they can't afford bricks and tiles, but now it has become a villa for rich people. When you come to Yangjiao Village, in addition to walking slowly, you must enjoy the beauty of visiting the village by boat. When renting a boat, the store will attach a map of the water road of Yangjiao Village, according to the flag with the number on the water surface, looking for the waterway label on the map, you can clearly find your own position. You can also rent a bicycle to wander among the boulevards, enjoying life in the closest way to nature.
