But don’t forget the windmills, the wooden shoe factory, the shops, the bakery museum and the cheese farm. The mills are one of the sights that Zaanse Schans typifies. There are several mills. Each mill has its own function. For example, the paint mill, the oil mill, the saw mill and the spice mill. You will certainly not be bored at the Zaanse Schans!
The next stop after Zaanse Schans is the cheese and clog farm. The Netherlands is known for its cheese. The cheese and clog farm can’t be missed in this sightseeing tour. At the cheese and clogs farm information is given about how cheese is made. Of course, this also includes tasting the cheese. There is also a demonstration on making clogs.
After we have been at the cheese and clogs farm, we go to Volendam. Volendam is a fishing village and is known from its fresh fish. A typical fish species eaten by the Dutch is herring, but Volendam is best known from its eel. There are several fishing carts where you can taste herring or eel. The fresh fish enters through the harbor. Of course you can take a look at the harbor with old Dutch ships. Volendam has its own traditional costume. You can be photographed in this traditional costume, so that you will look like a real Volendammer. In the center of Volendam you can walk on the cozy dike (boulevard).
