Living in the Netherlands | How People Live on Land Made by Hand | World Documentary

Life in the Netherlands means living in a country that keeps making more of itself. In this world documentary, we travel from greenhouses that glow orange in the winter night to a fishing island whose sea was taken away, a sea floor you can walk across, and the homes of the children UNICEF ranks first in the rich world for well-being, to see how people live in the Netherlands. Along the way: Westland's glasshouses, the Aalsmeer flower auction, the Alkmaar cheese market, Kinderdijk, Urk, the Wadden Sea, the Port of Rotterdam, a country on two wheels, and Amsterdam's canal houses. A world documentary about life in the Netherlands, from the first lamp in a January greenhouse to the first light over the sea.
