Zeeland is a province on the southwestern part of the Netherlands. Its name means "sea land". Zeeland is in a river delta. Much of the land here was reclaimed from the sea in age past. A large area of Zeeland is below sea level. The country of New Zealand was named after it.

Zeeland covers 1,788 square kilometers of land and 1,146 square kilometers of water. It has a population of only 380,000 people. The area is a beach destination. During the summer months, it receives a high number of tourists, mainly Germans, which swell the local population by two to four times.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
