Welcome to Amsterdam!!!
Let's continue exploring places everyone has to visit when they come to Amsterdam. Then let's move on to the hotspots where you can eat well, enjoy the view on a roof terrace and many more places. You you need to know the right places to get the maximum out of your holiday.
Follow me on this ongoing journey in Amsterdam.
*All pictures are mine.
From Dam Square we will enter the Kalverstraat which is 1 kilometre long and on both sides you can find shops.
Kalverstraat has 15 side streets / passages. We will take the one that goes to Leidseplein so we can make a pitstop at Vleminckx.
Vlemminckx
Is a sauce master that sells home made Belgian fries whit a variety of choice in sauces. It is know as the best fries store in Amsterdam. There is almost all the time a row and nobody minds it. If you visit Amsterdam this is actually a must. Set your navigation on 'Voetboogstraat 33' or just look for a long row to find it.
On our way to Leidseplein we come across the famous flower market of Amsterdam. You can take this side street to visit. Let's take a little detour.
The flower market of Amsterdam is on the world heritage list of Unesco. Flower growers came on little boats to bring their flowers in the centre of Amsterdam. This started in 1862. De flower market today is still on boats, but they are stationary as you can see in the picture above. It is a nice place for flower enthusiasts.
And do not be surprised if you see something like this. We are crazy about our cheese.
It is time to continue our walk towards the Leidseplein. Here are some pictures of our road towards there.
See you in the next episode!
I love the Dam! Never a boring place. Great post.

Great photos - thanks for the tour! So clean - hefty littering fines? Superb cleaning crews? or just folks taking pride in the place they live? Thanks for sharing!

Thank you and very welcome. :)) A mix of superb cleaning crews and most people being decent enough to throw it in a trash can I guess. But without the superb cleaning crews we would be nowhere ofcourse. Lots of respect to them.

When I think of Amsterdam, the last thing that comes to mind is cheese museums and sauce masters. I didn't even know there is such a thing as a sauce master. The more you know!
Great captures of the canal. I've heard nothing but good things about Amsterdam and I hope I can make it there myself one day.
