Broek, the cleanest Dutch village of the world.

In the previous article we comment you that if there is is something that characterizes the Dutch the cleaning that maintains, under every.order because of it today I will describe you one of the cleanest places of the world, to know: the village Broek. It located in the Waterland north of Holland, he has been respected for a very long time already, as the first one in matter of cleaning.


In an epoch he was told that to the men of Broek he was them prohibited to smoke, except with pipe of covered stove, so that the ash could not be scattered, and that was not permitted that the cows passed for the village, but they had to be conducted by the outskirts. According to the legend, was paid the boys so that were removed the dust placed in the cracks of the pavement four times for hour, and there was a law done not write, which established that if a villager saw, from its window, to fall a leaf, he had to leave to collect it and to throw it to the channel.



But any that have been the virtues of this beautiful Dutch village, at present, if the visits, you will not be able to corroborate everything that we have just said you, since with the step the time the cleaning to stopped being the characteristic feature of Broek. Does not it mean that be a dirty city, but no longer laws exist “done not write” so strict, as that of raising to the minimum leaf of tree to throw it to the most next channel. Nevertheless, we will see that still in the fields, the cows are to a beam to impede that the same they dirty all the green extension, for example.

Likewise we congratulate the villagers of Broek, since to maintain the order of the city and the cleaning do that can live on himself a milder form and that the tourist sits down a lot more comfortable and he can enjoy still more than the place.
