Bloemenmarkt

As the only floating flower market in the world, the Bloemenmarkt on the Singel canal in Amsterdam is one flower market you definitely want to visit. Aside from the vibrant colours and divine smells of all the flowers on offer, visitors can also find bulbs, seeds and typical Dutch souvenirs that would make great gifts for visiting family and friends.

Dappermarkt

Food, drinks, jewellery, and of course flowers - the Dappermarkt has it all! Taking place six days a week next to the neighbourhood park in Amsterdam-Oost, you can get all the flowers your heart desires, from made-to-order bouquets to fully-grown houseplants in little pots.
