| Mant travelers try
hard to avoid "tourist spots". This can be a mistake as they are often so
designated because of the interesting things that they offer. |
Zaanse Schans can be
reached via tour bus from Amsterdam. Another good idea is to do what I did,
rent a car for a day. This will allow you to do a nice "loop" tour. |

This Loop can take
you through the towns of Durgerdam, Marken, Monikadam, Volendam, Zaanse Schans
and Edam in one day. |
