The province of Flevoland is characterized by a lot of open space and a tight layout. The province consists of two parts: the Noordoostpolder, which is a continuation of the mainland, and the Flevopolder, the largest artificial island in the world. The Flevopolder is connected to the mainland by bridges (including Stichtse Brug, Hollandse Brug and Ketelbrug), a railway tunnel (Drontermeertunnel) and a dyke (Houtribdijk). The province is on average about 5 meters below sea level.
