Giethoorn is a tourist village in the Netherlands, nicknamed the "Venice of the North". Nicknamed such because no motorized land vehicles that can be passing by there, and transport can only be done on the water, the canal which branched into the flow of the river - a small river
The water that surrounds and bathes the village was started from the coming deluge of St. Elizabeth in 1170, and the village itself was founded and developed back in 1230 when the fugitive Mediterranean came to settle here. The fugitives found a lot of wild goat horns may have been killed due to flooding, and that's where the name came from the village. This village was originally called 'Geytenhorn' which means 'goat horn', eventually became Giethoorn after many years.
Many houses built on small islands, reached by a high bridge. Villagers in a small boat with a low noise motor vessel known as a whisper, and the wooden bridge that is used for connecting one island to another.
Giethoorn became famous, especially after 1958, when a Dutch comedian Bert Haanstra made famous comedy "Fanfare" in there.
