In today’s vlog I bring you along with us on a trip to explore another side of The Netherlands, we go walking in Zaandam! The city is located only 12 minutes away by train from the Amsterdam urban area but we decided to go on the adventurous route and bike all the way from Sloterdijk station (Amsterdam) to Zaandam. The bike ride usually takes 1 hour but it only took us 40 minutes.
We spend some time wandering around in the beautiful Stadhuisplein and saw the postcard of this city, the Inntel Hotel, a very unique hotel that is famous for its "lego-like" architecture.
We also try some local food on a boat restaurant in the Main Street of the city before heading to the most beautiful part of the area, The Zaanse Schans. In this area we see the famous Dutch Windmills that you often see in postcards.
Although the Zaanse Schans is part of the city, it feels like you were transported into a tiny village back in time. If you enjoy the video, please give me some support and hit the like button, it costs nothing to you but it means a lot to me! :-)

Please remember, you need an permanent address in the Netherlands to be able to use the OV-fiets. Incidental visitors can't use it, prerequisite is that address and normally it is connected to your BSN number/bank account.

I've lived almost 60 years in Zaandam and my weddingpictures were taken on the Zaanse Schans. It was nice to see you've enjoyed it so much

Because of the restrictions, the museums were closed when we went but they are all open by now. One full day is enough to see everything 😉
Beautiful! How much did you spend? Thanks for the info

I don't remember exactly how much we spent that day but it's a super affordable trip from Amsterdam. Just a regular train ticket (or bike if you feel adventurous like us), and the sights are free! :-)
we would like to go explore some day
