Reeuwijkse plassen, Lake system in South Holland, Netherlands
The Reeuwijkse Plassen consists of thirteen interconnected lakes covering an extensive area with numerous water channels and small islands throughout the region.
During the Middle Ages, local inhabitants extracted peat from this region, which gradually transformed the landscape into the current network of lakes.
The lakes represent traditional Dutch water management practices, where communities actively maintain water levels through an intricate system of dikes and pumps.
Visitors can rent boats at multiple locations around the lakes, with designated areas for swimming, fishing, and water sports throughout the connected waterways.
The lakes feature specialized floating houses that adapt to water level changes, demonstrating modern architectural solutions for living on water.
