Schieveen
For those who want to enjoy peace and quiet near the big city, the Schieveen area is a perfect getaway. You’ll hardly find any houses there, but instead, you’ll discover a oasis of greenery. Cycle along the long country roads, spot the godwit or spoonbill, and let the wind blow through your hair. Schieveen truly embodies the essence of Holland. And if you’re interested in delving into history, take a look at the pumping station on Delftweg, the oldest still-functioning electrically powered pumping station in the Netherlands.
