Bleiswijk

Bleiswijk is a village in South Holland situated on agricultural land in the western Netherlands. The settlement displays the typical pattern of Dutch villages with scattered buildings interspersed with green spaces and open farmland.

The village functioned as an independent municipality from 1812 until 2007, when it merged with neighboring communities to form Lansingerland. This combination reshaped the administrative structure of the wider region.

The Nederlandsch Hervormde Church anchors the village center with its traditional Dutch design and serves as a focal point for the community. Visitors notice how this building reflects the religious roots of the settlement.

The village is accessible via the N209 road and features clear signage for visitors to navigate. Most routes are flat and easy to walk since the terrain presents no significant slopes.

The population of Bleiswijk increased from 1,226 inhabitants in 1830 to more than 10,000 residents in the year 2000.
