What a great picture! I'm guessing it's Holland, right? Yes, of course! The windmills must have given it away. There are lots in Holland and some are very old, but they have been preserved perfectly. I saw them when I was travelling around Europe last summer. There are lots of different types, too. This one here is a drainage mill, but there are also corn mills and industrial mills for all kinds of purposes. I just think they brighten up the landscape, especially in a country as flat as Holland, standing tall against the horizon with their sails whirling in the air. I agree. Did you know Cervantes wrote about Don Quixote's famous attack on the windmills? Yes, not just that though. There are many paintings of the East Anglian countryside in England by John Constable, whose family owned mills. The windmill has played a part in the historic and artistic, as well as economic, development of Western civilisation. Holland comes to mind first as the windmill capital of the world, but England's windmills were equally plentiful and important to the economy of the country.
