The Beautiful city of Hindeloopen

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Check out this drone video of a historic city in the northern Netherlands, compliments of contributor and pilot The Netherlands from Above.  It's the town of Hindeloopen, and it's on the IJsselmeer, the great bay-cum-lake north of Amsterdam.   Founded in the early 13th century, Hindeloopen was one of the most important seafaring towns in the province of Friesland, and was a member of the Hanseatic League.  In 1932, when the IJ was created by closing off the Zuiderzee with a dike, Hindeloopen lost its direct access to the North Sea.
