The Bloemenmarkt, or Flower Market, in Amsterdam city centre is the World’s only floating flower market. The market sits along the singel canal with the flower shops held in berges forming a row of fantastic displays of flowers, orchids, tulip bulbs, seeds,etc.
If you're a flower lover or not, this place is a must see for its colorful spectacle even if you are not intending to buy. Not too big...you can wander it in an hour quite easily. The flowers are so bright and healthy looking, and the displays are typical dutch...nicely laid out and organized. Also a good place to look for wooden shoes (clogs) and other gifts. A simply charming experience.
