City of 's-Hertogenbosch at 50 meters from the outskirts area “Het Bossche Broek”.
On this wonderful Sunday afternoon electric tourist-boats with guide sail over de “Singelgracht” (Dommel river) trough the passageway ’Grote hekel’ into the down-town city of ‘s-Hertogenbosch in the south of the Netherlands.The ‘Grote Hekel’ is that large gate in the medieval city-wall and was the floodgate to protect our city against high waters. In 1880 they build a steam pumping station here. There were three passages where the most westerly were demolished in the 19th century.
A “Hekel” was a large beam with steel pins that could be placed in the passageway of the city wall Grote Hekel in early times to stop enemies.
The traffic is on 60 meters driving over the ‘Zuidwal’ ‘Pettelaarseweg’en ‘Oude Dieze’.
I’m recording from the river embankment where sometimes walking, chatting and singing people pass. The are all in a good mood because of the wonderful weather this sunny autumn October day.
This is what tourist see when the sail trough the down-town city ‘s-Hertogenbosch;
