Most of it is located on land, but it includes several West Frisian islands. Together with the water area, the province is the largest in the country. Agriculture makes a major contribution to the economy, but the influence of tourism is also growing every year. Capital The capital of the region is its largest city - Leeuwarden. Climate The climate of the province of Friesland is characterized as warm and temperate. The proximity to the sea causes a large amount of precipitation at any time of the year. Nature The nature of the province combines dunes, landscapes untouched by man, a large number of lakes and pine forests. In search of beautiful places, tourists embark on independent journeys through the region, exploring meadows, swamps and forests in peace and quiet. The most picturesque landscapes can be found, of course, in the De Kennermerdünen National Park, where, on an area of more than a thousand hectares, you can see not only the dune coast of the North Sea, but also meadows and forests with natural fauna. Principal cities: Leeuwarden, Drachten, Harlingen Leeuwarden is the capital city of the province. Its history began in the 15th century, thanks to the large Middelse River, it then became an important European trading center. However, in less than a century it dried up, bringing the city into decline. Since then, Leeuwarden has not stood out among other agricultural cities in the country. After the removal of the occupation of the German troops, the city gradually recovered, now it is methodically developing. Now, many Dutch and other Europeans come to the annual Domino Day to see world records in dominoes. Drachten is an old small town in the province. However, it cannot be called a province, it is famous for its industry. Throughout Europe, he is also famous for his road experiment. At the beginning of the 21st century, the city authorities abandoned traffic lights and some signs in the city center. They explain this by the fact that the driver is more focused when he does not rely on strict traffic rules. No matter how strange it may sound, the number of accidents has decreased by 8 times. Harlingen is an important seaport. It is logical that one of the important activities of the city are fishing and maintenance of ships. The harbor especially attracts tourists, because it offers picturesque views of both the sea and the town with its "toy" houses. What to see Above the docks of Harlingen rises the old lighthouse, already decommissioned. He illuminated the coast for 80 years. Tourists are attracted not only by its Art Deco features, but also by the hotel now located inside, with a panoramic observation deck. There are several settlements in the Netherlands with no more than 1000 inhabitants. Despite this, they received the status of a city. Among them, Sloten, an old town, is of particular interest. On its territory there are several historical buildings, for example, a windmill dating back to the 18th century. A well-preserved belt of canals also flows through it. On the northern coast of the province, you can enjoy seascapes on the shores of the Wadden Sea. It is especially interesting to go to one of the inhabited islands located near the coast. In the city of Franeker, the Eise Eising Planetarium deserves attention. In the operating greenhouse, located on top of a building in the city center, the movement of the celestial bodies of the solar system is reproduced. Its creation dates back to the end of the 18th century. Attractions The Casematten Museum will attract lovers of military history. The Afsluitdijk Dam was built to control the water level in the country. It was later improved with modern equipment and forts. Some of them became the basis for the museum. There are a decent number of architectural monuments in the capital: the building of the former office, the leaning tower of Oldekhove and the Chamber of Weights. Lovers of holy places will be attracted by the church of St. Boniface. In Leeuwarden, the building of the Central Pharmacy stands out among the medieval and renaissance buildings. It was built in the heyday of Art Nouveau, and a portrait of Hygena, the Greek goddess of medicine, became its decoration. #Friesland #Netherlands
