Op Walcheren

by Jacobus Craandijk

Op Walcheren is a travelogue that documents three walking tours on the island of Walcheren in the Netherlands. The book begins with a description of the train journey from Rotterdam to Middelburg. The first walk is a tour of the city of Middelburg, exploring its historical landmarks and architecture. The second walk is a shorter journey from Middelburg to the towns of Oost-Souburg and West-Souburg and back. The final walk is a longer journey from Middelburg to the coastal town of Domburg and back. Craandijk's writing combines descriptions of the landscapes, buildings, and people he encounters with personal reflections on his experiences. He provides a vivid and engaging portrait of Walcheren, highlighting its natural beauty, cultural heritage, and historical significance.
