In April, go to the Netherlands and search for the tulips in your dreams.

Dutch Windmill Village Nanny-level Guide Yanjiao Village lies quietly in the province of Overijssel in the northeast of the Netherlands, within the De Wieden nature reserve. For over 700 years, there have been no high-rise buildings or bustling traffic, making it seem like a paradise on earth. The entire village is covered in greenery, with a dense network of rivers running through it and 176 wooden bridges connecting every household, earning it the nickname "Venice of the North". To visit, one must either take a boat or walk, as cars must be parked outside the village. The best time to visit Yanjiao Village is from April to October, and a day trip is sufficient as the village is not very large. The Netherlands is in full bloom from March to the end of May, with mid-April being the best time to visit. At the train station's automatic ticket machine, buy a 1-day tourist pass for 44 euros (outside of peak hours before 6:30am and after 9:00am) which allows you to take all forms of transportation within the Netherlands (trains, buses, trams, and metros). If you're making a round trip in one day, buying this pass is even more cost-effective. Download the NS transportation app to check train schedules. 1. Depart from Amsterdam by train.
