Located an hour outside Amsterdam, on a piece of land that was reclaimed by humans, Yugen Forest is a place of fairy tales. Land that was once at the bottom of the sea is now a lush, young forest. On the ground you are as likely to find a seashell as a pinecone. And just a few hundred feet away, the sea looms above head.
