    "Whatever the case, Van Gogh's true deeds are absolutely worth it. The warmth and the flow of many color levels in the picture are very moving, especially when he walks to the flower of his newborn nephew, the blooming and blessing of life in the painting overflows into the space inside and outside the painting. Though the hope of life flashes, it is sincere and true."

Historical background It is said that a group of coal diggers settled here in the 18th century and dug out many horns from the ground, hence the name "Giethoorn Village". The residents of Giethoorn Village still maintain the traditional conical roofs, all of which are woven from reeds. Most of these reed houses are located beside the river and are connected to the opposite bank by small arched wooden bridges. Each house is a well-designed work of art, not only the roof, windows, gates, but also the sculptures on the lawn are realistic.

    "It may not be the peak season, and there is no problem entering several hours earlier than the scheduled session. The venue is not very large, the works are dense, and there are no particularly large works. In addition to the must-see treasures of the earthquake hall, many paintings are worth savoring and very worth it."

    "A hugely profound experience. I wasn’t quite prepared for how moved I would be by sharing the same space Anne Frank did all those years ago so make sure you have something fun planned for after. We went to a jazz club which was very much needed! You can only book online so make sure you book well in advance as tickets sell out quickly!"

    Highlights: On July 6, 1942, Anne Frank and her Jewish family went into hiding here from the Nazis. They survived in solitude for over two years, but there was not a happy ending. Although the original furnishings were removed by the German occupation, Anne Frank's beloved diary paints a vivid picture of what life was like. The museum was opened to the public in 1960 and was joined by an impressive visitors center in the 1980s.
