There are a few things the Netherlands will never have: decent curtains, dinner after 6 PM, and mountains. But one can dream, right?

Imagine skiing next to the canals of Amsterdam, with lush, Alpine-like mountains just five minutes away from Vondelpark. No, we’re not joking.  

These artists have created some pretty cool graphics of what the flattest country in Europe would look like if it had a mountain range.

Skiing next to Amsterdam’s canals

This video takes you on a magical ride along the canals of Amsterdam, set against a stunning mountainous landscape. How breathtaking is that?! 🏔️

Would you still love the Netherlands if it had mountains? Or do you enjoy living in a land with flat terrain? Tell us in the comments below!

Originally from the Czech Republic, Jana moved to the Netherlands for her studies. Seven years in the flattest country in Europe has brought her a Masters in Environmental Management, experience in content creation, projects, partnership coordination, and about 20 ideas on how to deal with Dutch winter blues (most of which didn’t work). Her love for the local cycling culture is undying — but she finally knows better than to hop on a bike in a typical Dutch downpour.
