Understand
Zeeland was subject to heavy flooding in 1953 during a north-wester storm at springtide. The Dutch government instituted the Delta Works to protect the province. The entire system of dams, dykes and bridges is present throughout the province and all the way up to Rotterdam in south holland.
Talk
Get in
Zeeland is in the south-west of the country. While all the islands are interconnected and connected to the mainland by fast roads now, the province still retains a somewhat insular nature, and it often turns out to be hard to combine a day-trip to zeeland with trips to anywhere else.
Get around
See
The Oosterschelde dam, a massive openable sea dam with an artificial island at its center. It is often a candidate for many a "modern world wonder" list all by itself. Together with the rest of the Delta works, it's just incredible.
