Woudsend
This tiny Frisian village on the water in the Netherlands, Woudsend has a café and restaurant scene that is well stocked for its size, making it a reasonable stop for those exploring the waterways of Súdwest-Fryslân. Two windmills, 't Lam and De Jager, add to its photogenic profile, and the wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
