Routes made of waterSourced

A canal village later added a cycle path

The old part of Giethoorn in the Netherlands originally had no roads, with transport using canals. A cycle path was added later. Its canal-and-bridge setting does not mean that every part of the village excludes all vehicles today.

A place associated with water transport can still change its routes.
