Bloemenmarkt
The Amsterdam flower market, known as the Bloemenmarkt in Dutch, is the world's only floating flower market. The market, which is located in the southern canal ring between Koningsplein and Muntplein, is one of the city's most famous tourist attractions.
It was established in St. Lucinwal in 1862, but was relocated to its current location in 1883. The market was well-known for selling plants and trees back then. Today, little booths aboard houseboats sell a variety of flowers, garden and home plants, cactus, bulbs, plant food, plant pots, seeds, and gardening tools.
The whole market, which floats on the Singel River, is evocative of the ancient days when boats and barges transported plants and flowers from farmers all around the city. The flower market in Amsterdam is famous for being one of the most colorful and aromatic sites in the city, and it is a good source of some intriguing and rare plants.
The flower collections change with the seasons. In the spring, for example, the market booths proudly showcase beautiful tulips. Summer is famed for its gorgeous flowers, and in December, the Bloemen market is where you can buy the nicest Christmas trees! The market has approximately 15 distinct stalls, each of which provides something unique. Everything from fresh flowers and plants to wooden tulips, souvenirs, and other things may be found here. This is the place to be whether you want to do some shopping or simply take a stroll and enjoy the beauty and vibrancy of the ambiance!
