Live Webcams in the Netherlands

The Netherlands is a flat country a quarter of which lies below sea level, and the live webcams in the Netherlands make the most of what that produces: the canals and squares of Amsterdam, the trams and streets of The Hague and Rotterdam, the trains that cross the polders, the North Sea beaches behind the dunes, and the tulip fields in April. The clock is Central European Time, UTC+1, UTC+2 in summer, so a morning in New York is a Dutch late afternoon, the hour the trams and platforms fill. Some 18 million people live in one of the most densely populated countries in Europe, and they own more bicycles than there are people. Spring for the bulb fields; summer for the beaches; a winter cold snap freezes the canals, rarely, and the whole country goes out to skate. Nederland is the name at home.
