Shaded by trees, the characteristic little village of Eastermar is typical of the Fryske Wâlden (Frisian forest) region. The area has got a long-lasting history of poverty, although recent industrialization and growing mobility have caused a significant improvement of the economic situation. In 1986 Eastermar was awarded by the South-Hollandic government for its innovative village restructuring. This was also made possible by the creative support of the local population. Eastermar is a village with 1500 inhabitants, on the banks of the Lits. Once a river, this waterway now connects two famous Frisian lakes: the Burgumermar and the Leijen.
