Dear Willem van Gool, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional assistance and knowledge you shared during my visit to the tourism office of Baarle-Nassau. Your expertise and guidance enriched my experience exploring this unique town's fascinating border situation. Your passion for Baarle and willingness to share its history and intricacies made my visit even more memorable. Thank you for your invaluable contribution to my trip. With warm regards,
In the Brazilian and uruguayan border, there is Santana do Livramento in br and Rivera in Uruguay, and is just like one city, but the line just crosses it from side to side, but nothing this crazy
I was born and grew up in a not dissimilar situation in the Greater Kansas City area: a single sprawling metroplex spread out over 5 counties in 2 states. You get used to it. 🎶 And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll 🎶 -- J. Page & R. A. Plant
That's not similar at all. I know it is hard to explain these things to Americans but what you're describing is utterly different and so much more insignificant that a national border
Baarle: Living in Two Countries in the Same Town 2149pm 20.5.23 MR & MRS Baarle...... is this a similar issues Kansas City has it seemingly being on the border of two states?
You didn't show the best part: they have a post office on the border, with half a Bpost (🇧🇪) office, and half a PostNL (🇳🇱) office, so you can post with the right agency. If you accidentally post a letter to the Netherlands from the Belgian service, for example, you need a more expensive stamp, and also it'll pass Brussels first, completely unnecessary!
Belgium and the Netherlands are members of the European Union. Within the European Union, you do not need a visa or passport. All citizens are allowed to move freely within the European Union.
Imagined a muder happen in a house sharing two countries together and in the court the lawyer said he was attacked in Belgium but dead body found in Netherland 😅😅😅
Good thing both countries are in Schengen haha!

1:31 “World capital of enclaves” 😂
Im planning to visit this Easter, im super excited.
dont' know why, but I kept picturing Hercule Poirot walking up and down that border line....
Would love to live there 🇳🇱 🇧🇪
I'm so worried, I think baarle residents are both double taxated by both countries
I've been there last February it was so fun, also locals were so cool with me and my friend
Great to hear :)
This is so cute! I would live here if I could 😊😂
It’s not the only town in two countries. Lichtenbusch, for example is partly Germany and partly Belgium.
*100/100!!!*
Absolutely fascinating!

So interesting. How is the tax situation here?
do they still need visas or passport to cross? I'm really wondering or are the people allowed to cross anywhere or at least just in that town
