Sinking Street
The Turfmarkt, one of the central canals in Gouda. The name translates to the Peat Market as it is where peat was bought to be traded up until the 1500's.
The oldest part of the city center subsides at a rate of about 3 to 6 millimeters each year so all of this is gradually sinking.
We walked the length of it and admired the locals ability to park. You have to be good at parking here if you don't want your VW turning into a U-boat.
