Neeltje Jans, Construction island and amusement park in Zeeland, Netherlands
The artificial island of Neeltje Jans extends across 2.5 square kilometers with a 14-kilometer coastline in the Oosterschelde waters.
Engineers constructed Neeltje Jans during the 1970s to support the development of the Oosterscheldekering barrier, part of the Delta Works flood protection system.
The Delta Works information center on Neeltje Jans demonstrates the Netherlands' long relationship with water management through engineering exhibitions and demonstrations.
Visitors can access multiple attractions including an aquarium, water park, and educational exhibits about marine life and flood protection systems.
The island served as a finish line location for the Tour de France in 2015, combining sports with engineering infrastructure.
