Kinderdijk, in the Netherlands, is home to the world's largest windmill complex. These mighty, dry land-creating machines are so important that they have their own #unesco status. They are so historic, because they made uninhabitable swampland a (very!) pretty place to live. And... Their 70 mph wings are so powerful, they might sweep you off your feet if you get too close. (I swear I wasn't scared. Truly! 😬) Watch, learn & enjoy in this preview clip from our all-new season, debuting this fall!
