Born and raised in Gouda, loving it :) So I am very proud there is a video like these. Though I want to see so much more then just 9 minutes of footage. Good video :)
Thank you soo much for this video. I’m currently sat in a Coffeeshop in Gouda after following this video whilst walking around Gouda by pausing and starting the video.This was very very helpful. Thanks again 👍
That is a new feature I added to my movies, thanks to Google's generous sharing policies, glad you like them. I always use lots of maps from openstreetmaps.org, but Google Earth is spectacular.
Love your videos of towns in Netherlands, as we are going there next year. When will you be doing an up-to- date video of Amsterdam? Also, can we get maps of the towns you’ve shown with the walking routes on them?
Yes, thank you, I will soon be covering Amsterdam in-depth. I was there for a week and got lots of excellent footage. I have begun my series with the other towns of Netherlands,, often overlooked, but will get to Amsterdam soon. About the maps, I am working on a way to create guidebooks that will include them, keep posted.
I go there this coming April it is my home town our family left in 1969. Curious what it looks like now. Google earth is a hard act to follow in regards to maps. Amsterdam is easy see it as a dart-board. Cut it into half. The bulls eye is central station, the triple ring is the metro which connects with all the tramways who are heading also to the central station. It is possible to reach any point in the city by public transport. For a reasonably fit person all of the city can be explored by walking alone.
You really missed some spots here which make me mad actually. Let's begin... The city hall next to the station and the cinema also next to the station are buildings shaped in what Gouda is famous for. Cheese and Sirup waffles. You didn't mention waffles at al. Oke, it's maybe not a really tourist attraction, but next to the Museumharbour we have the next thing that is "Gouda". Cigars, candles and so on. Made by the factory there. Also it's a nice place to walk a bit back and see the sun going down, gives a nice view over the calm waters. Way more enjoyable then seeying some boats from ancient times. Then, you have the Goudse Schouwburg. And you missed the Korte/Lange tiendweg, also quite a nice shopping street to go on, lot's of shops there. Or what about after the church you have some small very cozy restaurants and cafe's. We have a Museum to, called "Museum Gouda". Lot's of cuture there in such a small building. Not to forget we also have a special place for the veterans of the 40's Then you forget the Houtmansplantsoen, which is a place with a pagode, where music performances are played in summer. Would also love to mention the Goudse Hout, where now a place for kids is, very fun place, but mainly it's a big city park, that also directs you to the Steinse Groen. Nice places, and freakingly quiet. Gouda also has "Kaarsjesavond", totally no mention about that, which is quite sad, because it's the biggest event of the year. (A tree is lightened). Then the fact our city lies in the middle of everything, yes you mentioned it a bit. But basically you can reach the whole country from our station without needing to get a next train. Even from the smaller Goverwelle station. That for a city of just 70K. it's quite recognisable. And oh yeah, there is GoudAsfalt, which is now a huge event location and a city beach. Uhm you did mention the Best Western hotel, but forgot de Goudse Lichtfabriek, which is a restaurant in a old lights manufacturing building which huge glass. OIther churches, also no mention. For god sake, I almost wanna make a new video myself. If I only could film as well...
Thank you for that detailed description of your town. I will use that as my guide next time I go there. You are correct that my coverage is not complete, but that's all I got during my brief visit, and I felt it was enough to at least present a feeling for the place, and how the main parts of town look and fit together. I will go back and shoot some more, including your suggestions.
Then why does Wikipedia say this: "The Sint-Janskerk or Grote Kerk in the Dutch city of Gouda is a large Gothic -style cruciform church...St. John's Church is dedicated to Johannes de Baptist , the patron saint of Gouda
@@denniscallan i dont know but they are close to each other so maybe thats the reason or i am confused with the name of the other one cause the one in the vid is the st jan for sure
This is right. The sint jans church is a whole different church... Maybe even another sort of Christian church. Like you have a lot of different Christian and church es like catholic (katholiek?) and reformed made free (gereformeerd vrijgemaakt) im a Christian and know a lot of Gouda, because I live there for 18 years. Still live in the netherlands, my parents still live there. If u have question you can ask. Sint Jan is reformed (hervormd) I thought, and grote kerk is different i thought like catholic i thought.
@@StefferXXL i think your correct i live in gouda my whole life (19 years) and sint jan is reformend for sure and not sure about grote kerk but i am not sure if its even still in use as a chursh cause ther was a iceskating course in like 2 or 3 years ago
@@echo_of_ghosts2410 there were a lot by the stadhuis... But i think the church, the big one 123 m high is more for activities than church things. But a lot of People still go on sunday to the sint Jan to have church cuz i know some of them
