Het Gooi

Travel Guide

Once the home of the duck hunter, now used to explain how the nearby duck decoy once worked - the English word originates from the Dutch word “eendenkooi”. 

Still has a few ducks left, the lucky kind. The decoy is now in the middle of nature reserve Naardermeer.

The interior design of this TV and Radio museum clearly shows its aspiration to radiate a modern version of the gothic-cathedral aura.

This little town was so picturesque that I was busy too busy soaking it up rather than taking more pictures.
A statue of Comenius next to his mausoleum and a small museum. There is a larger statue next to the church. Both are way too small to commemorate such a great educator.
