Monument laagste punt van Nederland
Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel, Zuid-Holland
Stand at 6.78 metres below sea level, you can't go lower in the Netherlands.
In the Zuidplaspolder lies the lowest point in the whole of the Netherlands, and this is where the monument that proves it stands. A seven-metre-tall blue water gauge on a jetty in the water shows just how far below sea level you actually are. The perfect photo moment during a cycling trip through the polder, with a story you won't forget in a hurry.
