North Holland is a province in the northern part of the Netherlands. Zaanse Schans is a famous ‘Windmill Village’ in North Holland. When he came here, he came to the home of the windmill. The windmill is the best proof of Dutch history. In the past when windmills were the main power, the Netherlands built about 1,000 windmills in more than 250 years. The whole country relied on the power of windmills to make the logging industry and shipbuilding industry prosperous. It was not until steam power replaced the power of windmills that windmills officially withdrew from the stage of history. Most of the windmills in Sens have been demolished.
Windmill Village is an open reservation and museum with residents living in it, located 15 kilometers north of Amsterdam. The old buildings vividly portray Dutch life in the 17th and 18th centuries. Real houses, old shipyards, wooden shoe-making performances, and windmills attract thousands of tourists every year. The Zaan District may be the first industrial zone in the world. 250 years ago, on this small area, there were more than 800 windmills, which were responsible for various industrial tasks. Of the five windmills currently seen, three are open to visitors. The museum in the Windmill Village includes a wooden shoe factory, a pewter factory, a bakery, a cheese and dairy workshop, and a grocery store for more than 100 years.
Because of the water and the sea, tens of thousands of Dutch people lived on the lake bed in the ancient century. In order to survive, the Dutch created a legend of life in a unique way hundreds of years ago. In order to keep the bottom of the lake dry, people use windmills to drain water and prevent waterlogging. They also use windmills to turn wind into a huge power, making Zaanse an the earliest industrial area in the world. The wise Dutch widely used windmills in various fields of industrial production. Such windmills are called industrial windmills. There are sawmill windmills, oil mill windmills, paper mill windmills, and mill windmills. In 1776, the United States' Declaration of Independence was written on parchment made in the Zaan region of the Netherlands. This sheepskin was made in 1692 by the De Schoolmeester paper-making windmill in the Zaan village.
Today, standing in front of a green field, it is hard for us to imagine that there were more than 800 old windmills in Zaanse 250 years ago, densely packed, rotating all day long, busy working.
Due to different functions, almost all windmills are unique in shape, and it is difficult to find exactly the same. It is very knowledgeable to observe the swing method of windmill blades. It is said that the fan blade swings the cross to indicate the suspension of work, while the cross indicates that the windmill has been suspended for a long time. The fan blade to the right represents a happy event in the village, and a funeral to the left.
Windmills withdrew from the stage of history because of aging. In the Netherlands, I have to marvel that this is the brilliance left by a nation.
