Roads will get you nowhere in this picturesque village. Giethoorn, a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel, is an international tourist attraction in the Netherlands. The old part of the village has no roads and all transport is done by water. All visitors are welcome to enjoy the beautiful scenery while on a Whisper Boat (a special electric powered boat, which makes no noise). Other activities tourists can enjoy are picnics, swimming, sailing and windsurfing.
