A Village With No Roads

Roads? We don’t need no stinking roads!

Actually – the village of Giethoorn in the Netherlands looks very lovely without any road whatsoever:

Can you imagine a village with no roads? There is such an unique place in the Netherlands called Giethoorn (pronounced ‘geethorn’). There are no roads, and cars have to remain outside the village.

The only access to the stunningly lovely houses in Giethoorn is by water, or on foot over tiny individual wooden bridges.

The Presurfer has the video clip on how one gets around the village: Link

This story has got everything: baddies with machine guns, log riding off a waterfall, heavy machinery, pretty lady in bed … totally plausible, too.

Here’s a short clip for Canal+ titled "Wardrobe (The Closet)" by BETC EURO RSCG advertising agency, directed by Matthijs van Heijningen.

You won’t guess the ending: Link [embedded YouTube]
