The Poldervaart

Highlight • River

The Poldervaart was constructed in 1280. An important function of the Poldervaart was, initially, the drainage of the polders belonging to the five 'ambachten' (districts) Vrijenban, Hof van Delft, Berkel, Kethel, and Pijnacker. Drainage solely via the Schie proved insufficient; the Poldervaart formed an additional discharge channel and thus contributed to the water management of Delfland.
An additional advantage was the extra shipping connection, from Delft to an junction with the Nieuwe Maas between Vlaardingen and Schiedam. Sluice gates and inlets regulated the water level in the Poldervaart. The Poldervaart connected to the Nieuwe Maas near the Beneluxtunnel and the metro station 'Vijfsluizen'. The sluice 'De Vijf Sluizen' was located there.

Barbecue Area in Prinses Beatrixpark

Highlight • Rest Area

On sunny days, barbecues are a popular pastime in Prinses Beatrix Park. Starting Saturday, July 13, 2024, barbecues will no longer be permitted in certain parts of Prinses Beatrix Park. The new rules are intended to prevent nuisance and to keep the park clean, safe, and livable for everyone.
The areas where barbecues are permitted have been equipped with containers and waste bins for barbecue coals. This allows visitors to properly dispose of their waste afterward, preventing litter and pollution. Rules signs in the fields inform visitors how to use the parks. On busy days, waste coaches are available to explain the rules. Information about what is and isn't allowed can also be found at:
