Assigned Blog #6
The country I’m going to talk is the Netherlands! The Netherlands is a pretty good size country. In this blog I’m going to talk the population, GDP, what are things to do there, the capital, and interesting facts.
The population for the Netherlands is about 16,696,000. The gross domestic product (GDP) total for nominal is $840.433 billion and per capita is $50,355. The currency is Euro and United States dollars. The capital of the Netherlands is Amsterdam. There is a lot of fun things do in the Netherlands. I got my information from here.
If I was in Netherlands I would go to the Pancake Bakery. At the bakery it is a restaurant. They sell seventy nine different kinds of pancakes! No that’s a lot of pancakes. They also sell omelets, soup, and desserts. Another great way to see the country is by the Canal Tours. The Canal Tours are a great way to see the old town. If you are interested in animals you might want to check out the Artis. The Artis has tons of animals from alligators to zebras. It also has themed habitats such as a tropical forest and the African Savannah. The aquarium complex is also very cool thing to see. The aquarium has coral reefs, shark tanks, and the Amsterdam canal displayed from a fish’s point of view. There is also a petting zoo for the kids and a planetarium. There are also a lot of museums that you can go to in the Netherlands. I got my information from here.
There are a lot of facts about the country, but I’m only going to tell you about a few. Almost every citizen has a bicycle so that is 16 million bicycles in use! The Netherlands is also known as the Land of Compromise. In the Netherlands there is over 4,400km of rivers, canals, and lakes. Those were just a few facts that I found were the most interesting to me! I found my information here.
After researching about the Netherlands it sounds like a very fun place to go! I don’t know if I would travel there though it will take a while to get there! I think it would be really cool to go to the Artis though! It would be cool seeing all the animals they have there!
