    The former lignite mining areas in the Rhineland have not been repopulated and therefore now create a spaceless expanse in this densely populated area. However, the landscape design is largely unimaginative (few trees, huge fields, dead straight paths). The Dutch have redesigned the former industrial area between Maastricht and Roermond along the Meuse in a much nicer way.

    Great opportunities to drive around the opencast mine... unfortunately you get past the ghost towns... if you haven't seen it yet, you should definitely take the tour... I'll be back, no question👌
