Known for being the country’s most recognized fishing village, Volendam boasts a rich history. Initially, it served as a harbor for the nearby city of Edam, until the residents discovered a quicker route to the bay. This discovery led to Volendam transforming into a hub for local fishermen and farmers. The lively ambiance, folkloric attire of the locals, and indigenous music form an integral part of the charming culture of this scenic town.
Where the Zaan river intersects the verdant pastures filled with cows, you’ll come across one of the Netherlands’ iconic landmarks: the Zaanse Schans windmills. These historic windmills, some of the oldest in Holland, stretch across the flatland, forming a unique skyline. They pivot on their axis, harnessing the wind’s power.
