[Video] Walking in a Dutch winter wonderland

Cast your mind back to the beginning of the year; as everyone was looking forward to temperatures rising and the weather getting a little bit nicer, the Netherlands was hit by some serious snow. People definitely have very mixed feelings about snow - yes it can be beautiful, but it can also be a bit of a nuisance, especially if you live in a city. 

Now that the Netherlands is experiencing what is most definitely not a white Christmas, enjoy some picturesque views of how pretty this country can be when it does decide to snow.

From skaters making the most of frozen lakes and canals, to picture-perfect windmills dusted in a light coating of snow - the Netherlands really isn’t too bad a place to live after all, is it?

Who knows, maybe we’ll get some more snow this winter. Only time will tell!
