The Dutch, not content with merely driving the sea back, now seek to taunt and humiliate it
OP’s image needs to be captioned with your comment and then ever so slightly jpegified. chef’s kiss
EDIT: Linky as tall images don’t do well in web, unless you are an ant.
Has polandball come across to the fediverse yet?
Fucking masterpiece
What the fuck is this place. The hills look like a PS1 game
Not a hill, its a levee
I was thinking Sketchfab
Even the history of this is fascinating. This is the “Moses Bridge”, and it’s a renovated part of the old dyke system that was used to prevent attacking armies from getting in - because the dykes and levee’s had blocked the sea so effectively, they realised they could stop attackers by… flooding them out. Literally.
When it came to renovate this area, they wanted to provide access without denigrating the fact it was an old defensive structure, hence this unique sea-level bridge.
Is it a “bridge” though?
I feel like that shit floods every time it rains lol. I’m curious how they would drain it.
Wow. There is very small margin for overflowing here…
Don’t worry the Dutch know what they’re doing when it comes to water.
