Visit to Oosterschelde Dam

The 12th world miracle: the closeable dam in the Oosterschelde river, the best horse of the Delta works, protecting Zeeland against the sea. You can enter the huge concrete blocks to see the water rushing in from close by. These pics were taken when the sea was 1m higher than the Oosterschelde. The two red lines on a concrete block indicate the level where the dam will close (lower red line) and the level of the 1953 flood (upper red line)
