Achterhoek (translated as Back Corner) is a rural region within the Province of Gelderland in the east of The Netherlands, extending around 30 km from the German border. The region has a population of 355,000 (year 2000), around a fifth of the Provincial total (1.9 million), and a population density of 378 people per km², comparable with Kent (380) and Hampshire (340).
Apart from the substantial Gelderland towns of Arnhem and Nijmegen, which are situated to the west of Achterhoek, the region is characterized by substantial expanses of agriculture and open land, and scattered small towns and villages, which Doetinchem, Zutphen, and Winterswijk are the most significant. These provide a service function for the surrounding rural areas. --http://www.cfit.gov.uk/research/ebp/stage2/pdf/stage2f.pdf | |

Behind me, just beyong the gate, an open BMW 2-seater pulled up while I was composing this shot. I didn't hear it. After the shot, I turned around to find the groom in the driver's seat, beside his gorgeous bride. They both were laughing. Members of the reception party, at the house, were yelling something. I don't know what--I don't speak Nederlands! |

Region Achterhoek Nl Ge Dinxperlo. Lawn-mowing-man.
Traveling in the south-eastern part of Province GELDERLAND, you find little Dinxperlo, frontier town with German Suderwick (WESTFALIA). From the end of WW II in 1945 until 1963 Suderwick as well was part of Holland; in August 1963 (following the Dutch-German Treaty) Suderwick became German again and the old borderline was re-established. In 1996 customs control/check points and border gates disappeared. Just cross the street and you are in a different country speaking a different language.
The miniscule area of Germany through which I traveled this day appeared more 'grey' and unkempt than its Dutch neighbor.
