The geographic feature in the Netherlands that most directly contributes to the presence of hundreds of canals, dams, and waterways is low-lying coastal lands. The Netherlands is known for its flat terrain and significant areas below sea level, which has necessitated the construction of extensive canal systems and water management structures.
