The Jordaan area
In the Jordaan everything is smaller than in the rest of the city centre of Amsterdam, the popular area consists of picturesque canals and a labyrinth of charming streets with monumental small houses, inner courtyards and narrow side streets.
Budget shopping
Every Saturday you will find a lively market on the Lindengracht and the Noordermarkt. For some low-priced clothes and fabric go to the flea market at the Noordermarkt and the market on the Westerstraat on Monday.
