Love this market, particularly for the food. One day on our visit we had a herring sandwich, chicken with satay sauce and amazing fries (oh, plus a delicious fresh kiwi and orange juice) as we walked along all for only 8 euro per person. Best lunch we had durung our stay!! More

There's all sorts on sale - I bought some lovely medjool dates, fluffy clogs, mentholated honey, a tee shirt, back-scratchers, josticks and chocolate. This is just a small selection of what's on offer but best... More

This market is filled with food and clothing. I bought scarves for 1 euro and earrings 2/1 euro. Great prices but even better, I remember Amsterdam everytime I wear these items. Easily accessible by tram, it is located in the De Pijp neighborhood. I visited this market 3 or 4 times while on my visit. More

Well known among locals, this market is a MUST SEE. Enjoy a stroll between food vendors of cheese, chicken, fish to old merchandise. If the Bloemmarkt is THE market for flowers downtown, this is THE market for everything else. It's an experience, just go and have yours. On the negative side, I was expecting more food stands to be honest.... More

Whatever you need, this market most likely has it. Seems to be a tad touristy with a few souvenir stands, but overall a more authentic experience into how locals to their shopping. Buy a few snacks for the rest of the day, or if you dare, haggle for some knockoff luxuries. More
