This Magical Village With No Roads At All Is Straight Out Of A Fairy Tale Book

If the place of your dreams is a small, quiet, magical place, then Giethoorn is the right place to live your own fairy tale. Known differently as “Venice of the Netherlands”, this enchanting village was found around 1230. Ever since then, it has become the epitome of paradise on Earth.



It has no roads or any modern transportation at all, only canals. Well, and 176 bridges too. Tourists have to leave their cars outside of the village and travel here by foot or boat by (usually by "whisper boats", which have noiseless engines). So you can probably imagine how peaceful it is here (well, when it isn't flooded with tourists, of course)… Image credits: owegoo.com
