Calm down-town city canal 'de Vughterstroom', 's-Hertogenbosch Holland. Ambient recording.
I have my microphones hanging over the 5 meter high wall of the down-town city canal, 1 meter above the water level. Remarkable is the city noise doesn't come there, even it's a Friday afternoon and people are doing there shopping. Just the nearby sounds are audible.
Sometime people pass and after a while kids play in a nearby very small city-park. Two man hang over the wall and make a little chat sometimes. Some birds around. Blackbirds make a nest in the leaves of a honeysuckle.
In spring and summer you can sail trough the canal with a guide.
Recorded: city-canal 'Vughterstroom' along 'Uilenburg', 's-Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch), Netherlands (Holland), Europe.
