Hi TL friends

Volendam is a popular tourist attraction in the Netherlands, well-known for its old fishing boats and the traditional clothing still worn by some residents. The women's costume of Volendam, with its high, pointed bonnet, is one of the most recognizable of the Dutch traditional costumes, and is often featured on tourist postcards and posters (although there are believed to be fewer than 50 women now wearing the costume as part of their daily lives, most of them elderly). There is a regular ferry connection to Marken, a peninsula close by. Volendam also features a small museum about its history and clothing style.

Enjoy!

Hi Yiannis,
Again a fine Holland promotion from Greek soil :-)
Great colourful image of Volendam, a tad too saturated though in my opinion. Nevertheless a fine view of this well known village in Holland. Your Dutch Tour is greatly appreciated!
