Stunning aerial footage showing a fully-loaded barge cruising the river Scheldt in Antwerp, is unexpectedly calming.

The Belgian city can be seen in the background as the boat makes its way along the European waterway.

The drone follows the barge at a distance, then flies closer to it, where you can clearly see giant heaps of sand inside.

The Scheldt is 350km (220 miles) long and flows through France, Belgium and the Netherlands.
