Het vindt plaats op de Singel in Amsterdam. De Singel diende lange tijd als verdedigingsgracht voor de stad tot Amsterdam buiten de grenzen van de gracht uitbreidde. Elk kraampje van de 15 bloemisten in de Drijvende Bloemenmarkt ligt op een ponton in het kanaal, en u voelt zelfs niet dat de markt drijft! De allereerste drijvende markt werd in 1862 gehouden, maar als u vandaag de dag op zoek bent naar allerlei bloemen, is de drijvende Bloemenmarkt de plek om ze te vinden. U vindt er zelfs een aantal ongelooflijke hybride rassen die u beslist nog nooit eerder hebt gezien. De markt verkoopt ook een aantal zaden en bloembollen, één van de top exportproducten van Nederland. U kunt zelfs wat extra betalen om ze naar huis te laten verzenden , maar dat heeft de neiging om een beetje prijzig te zijn. Hou er dus rekening mee dat u meestal geen bloembollen of levende planten kunt meenemen op een vliegtuig als u terug naar huis vliegt. Naast alles wat met bloemen te maken heeft, vindt u er ook een aantal Nederlandse souvenirs, vooral in de kramen tegenover de markt. Soms lijkt het wel of de souvenirwinkels de Bloemenmarkt tegenwoordig overschaduwen. De bloemenmarkt is open van maandag tot en met vrijdag van 9 tot 6 en op zaterdag van 9 tot 5. Op zondag is het gesloten. U hoeft echt helemaal niets te kopen om van al dat moois op de markt te genieten. Het is een leuke plek om te wandelen en te genieten van de natuur midden in het bruisende leven van de rest van de stad. ----Formal English---- Floating Flower Market The Floating Flower Market, or Bloemenmarkt, is the only floating flower market in the world. It's on the Singel Canal in Amsterdam. The Singel Canal served as the city's moat for many years until Amsterdam expanded beyond the limits of the moat. Each of the stalls of the fifteen florists located in the Floating Flower Market sits on a pontoon in the canal, and you can't even tell that the market is floating! The very first floating market was held in 1862, and today, if you're looking for any kind of flower, the Floating Flower Market is the place to find it. You'll even find some incredible hybrid varieties that you've never seen before. The market also sells a number of seeds and flower bulbs, which are two of the top exports in the Netherlands. You can even pay to ship them home, although that does tend to get a bit pricey. Just remember that you usually can't take bulbs or live plants on an airplane when you're ready to fly home. In addition to everything having to do with flowers, you can also find a number Dutch souvenirs, especially in the stalls across from the market. The souvenir shops can seem to overshadow the Floating Flower Market these days, though. The flower market is open Monday through Friday from nine until six and Saturday from nine until five. It's closed on Sunday. You don't even have to buy anything to enjoy the market's beautiful splendor. It's a great place to walk and enjoy nature among the bustling of the rest of the city. --------------------------- Learn Dutch with DutchPod101!

De hoofdstad Philipsburg beheert de Nederlandse helft van het eiland. Reizigers die naar Sint Maarten gaan, komen meestal via de lucht, maar voor hen die met cruiseschip aankomen, is een reisje naar de luchthaven een must. De Princess Juliana International Airport is wereldwijd bekend om het adembenemende en nabije uitzicht op de vliegtuigen die voor een landing aankomen. Veel toeristen gaan alleen al naar het vliegveld om dit ongelooflijke panorama te zien. Naast de prachtige stranden, is winkelen een van de grootste toeristische activiteiten op het eiland vanwege al de duty-free shopping die beschikbaar is, en meer speciaal in de commerciële wijk van Philipsburg. Maar naast winkelen, zijn er tal van galeries en casino's om van te genieten. Toeristen die op zoek zijn naar naaktstranden in St. Maarten geven waarschijnlijk de voorkeur aan de Franse kant. Een andere toeristische must-do activiteit tijdens een bezoek aan St. Maarten is de "12 Meter Challenge", waarin je een voorproefje krijgt van hoe het is om als een bemanningslid te werken op een van de jachten in de America's Cup. Fort Amsterdam is ook een niet te missen bestemming op het eiland. De historische betekenis van het fort dateert helemaal terug tot 1631 toen het werd gebouwd. De Spanjaarden bezetten het voor vele jaren, maar later keerde het terug Nederlandse handen. ----Formal English---- Sint Maarten and the City of Philipsburg The Island of Sint Maarten is divided into the French and Dutch sides, and it's home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and the capital city of Philipsburg governs the Dutch half of the island. Travelers who are going to Sint Maarten should definitely travel by air, but for those who are set on going by cruise ship, a trip to the airport is a must. Princess Juliana International Airport is known worldwide for the breathtaking, close-quarters view of aircraft coming in for a landing. Many tourists go to the airport just to see this incredible panorama. Aside from the beautiful beaches, shopping is one of the biggest tourist activities on the island because of all the duty-free shopping that's available there, especially along the commercial district inside of Philipsburg. In addition to shopping, there are numerous art galleries and casinos there to be enjoyed. Tourists who are looking for the nude beaches in St. Maarten will prefer to stick to the French side instead. Another must-do activity for tourists visiting St. Maarten is the 12 Metre Challenge, which gives you just a taste of what it's like to work as a crew member for one of the yachts in the America's Cup. Fort Amsterdam is also a must-see destination on the island. The historical significance of the fort dates all the way back to 1631 when it was built. The Spanish occupied it for many years, but later it returned to the hands of the Dutch. --------------------------- Learn Dutch with DutchPod101!

Er is heel wat te doen en te zien in de hele stad, en er zijn talloze festivals in de loop van het hele jaar. Er is van alles, van zandsculpturen, tot fotografie en nog meer onderwerpen, die in de stad worden gevierd op verschillende dagen. En houd u van golven, dan is Den Haag ook een geweldige plaats om te gaan surfen. Scheveningen Surfers Village is een ongewoon gebied dat speciaal voor surfers is gecreëerd. U kunt er op het strand overnachten in zeecontainers indien u dat wenst, of er kamperen, en genieten van de golven op elk uur van de dag of nacht. Het gebied is ook de thuisbasis van een zeer populaire badplaats, waar u kunt zeilen, vissen, duiken en kitesurfen. Zoekt u een rustiger strand, neem dan eens een kijkje in Kijkduin, dat meer mogelijkheden biedt om te wandelen en in de duinen paard te rijden. Kinderen zullen beslist genieten van SEA LIFE Scheveningen, met meer dan 40 aquaria. Een groot deel van het Sea Life Centrum is eigenlijk een tropische jungle met ongelooflijke watervallen en wilde dieren die u normaal gesproken terugvindt in het Amazonegebied van Zuid-Amerika. Nog een geweldige familiebestemming is Madurodam, die heel Nederland in miniatuur herschept. Het park is elk jaar anders met nieuwe thema\'s die in het gebied worden gecreëerd. Ook de koningin van Nederland woont in Den Haag, zodat u de paleistuin zeker niet mag missen; dat is een geweldige plek om te ontspannen en te genieten van het buitenleven. ----Formal English---- Beautiful Beaches and More in The Hague Although Amsterdam is technically the capital of the Netherlands, The Hague is actually home to the country\'s government. There is much to do and see throughout the city, and it hosts numerous festivals all throughout the year. Everything from sand sculptures, to photography, and more topics are celebrated on various days in the city. If you want to hit the waves, The Hague is also a great place to go surfing. Scheveningen Surfers Village is an unusual area that was created specifically for surfers. You can stay overnight on the beach in sea containers if you wish, camp there, and enjoy the waves at any hour of the day or night. The area is also home to a very popular beach resort where you can enjoy sailing, fishing, diving, and kite surfing. If you\'re seeking a quieter beach, check out Kijkduin, which provides more hiking opportunities and horseback riding on the dunes. Kids will enjoy SEA LIFE Scheveningen, which is home to more than forty aquariums. A large part of the Sea Life Center is actually tropical jungle with incredible waterfalls and wildlife you normally find in the Amazon River region in South America. Another great destination for families is Madurodam, which recreates all of the Netherlands in miniature. The park changes each year with new themes being created in the area. The Queen of the Netherlands also resides in The Hague, so you don\'t want to miss the Palace Garden, which is a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. --------------------------- Learn Dutch with DutchPod101!

Deze belangrijkste Europese haven is ook de thuisbasis van enkele van de meest indrukwekkende bouwwerken in de wereld, en biedt tal van artistieke en ontspanningsmogelijkheden voor mensen van alle leeftijden. U moet zeker de tijd nemen om de bekende Kubuswoningen te bekijken, een reeks van innovatieve huizen gebaseerd op het idee \"leven als een stedelijke dak.\" Deze Kubuswoningen zijn gekanteld over een hoek van 45 graden en zitten op een pyloon in de vorm van een zeshoek. Gewoon er langs wandelen is al een ervaring op zich, maar er is er ook één opgezet als museum, waar u daadwerkelijk naar binnen kunt gaan. Rotterdam heeft ook andere ongelofelijke architectuurwerken, waaronder de Maastoren, het hoogste gebouw van Nederland. Het Nieuwe Luxortheater, de St. Laurenskerk, en het Van Nelle-complex zijn ook bestemmingen die kunnen tellen. In aanvulling op de architectuur, wilt u misschien een van de vele kunstgalerijen, concerten of andere shows meenemen in de stad. Een aantal beroemdheden van wereldformaat treden op in shows in Rotterdam, en u kunt er ook vaak het Scapino Ballet aantreffen. Pik een toneelstuk in het RO Theater mee of geniet van een cabaretshow in het Theater Zuidplein. Zowel kinderen als volwassenen zullen genieten van de cultuurervaring in het Wereldmuseum. U vindt ook volop avontuur in Rotterdam, of dat nu genieten is van de dierentuin of op het water gaan met een Spido havenrondvaart. En als u echt uit bent op een wateravontuur, probeer dan de Splashtours amfibiebus eens, die u op de zeebodem brengt zonder nat te worden. ----Formal English---- Rotterdam - The City of the World The experiences on offer in the City of Rotterdam are about as diverse as you can imagine. The major European port is home to some of the most impressive architecture in the world, as well as plenty of art and entertainment for people of all ages. You should definitely take the time to check out the well-known Cube Houses, which are some innovative houses that are based on the idea \"living as an urban roof.\" The Cube Houses are tilted at a forty-five degree angle and sit on a pylon that\'s in the shape of a hexagon. Just walking past them is an experience in itself, although there is one set up as a museum that you can actually go into. Rotterdam also holds other incredible pieces of architecture, including the Maastoren, which is the tallest building in the Netherlands. The New Luxor Theatre, St. Laurence Church, and the Van Nelle factor complex are also important destinations of note. In addition to architecture, you might want to take in one of the city\'s numerous art galleries, concerts, or other shows. Some world-renowned celebrities put on shows in Rotterdam, and you can often catch the Scapino Ballet there. Catch a play at the RO Theatre or enjoy cabaret at Theater Zuidplein. Kids and adults alike will enjoy the culture that can be experienced at the World Museum. You\'ll also find plenty of adventure in Rotterdam, whether you want to enjoy the city zoo or go out into the water by taking the Spido harbor tour. If you really want a water adventure, check out the Splashtours amphibious bus, which takes you under the sea without you even getting wet. --------------------------- Learn Dutch with DutchPod101!

De stad zit vol met prachtige grachten en tal van bezienswaardigheden. Als u graag per fiets rondtoert, dan is Amsterdam is de perfecte plek voor u. Een van de eerste dingen die u ziet wanneer u bij het Centraal Station aankomt, is een enorme, meerdere verdiepingen tellende parkeergarage voor fietsen. De stad is ook elke week de thuishaven voor boek- en kunstmarkten. Er zijn zelfs enkele bedrijven die fietstochten door de stad organiseren. De stad is ook berzaaid met tal van historische plaatsen, zoals het Anne Frank Huis, het Rembrandthuis, en het Van Gogh Museum. Als musea u niet zo aantrekken, dan zijn er ook vele andere attracties, zoals de dierentuin Artis en ook Madame Tussaud\'s Wassenbeelden Museum, dat vol staat met wassen beelden van een greep uit de populairste beroemdheden ter wereld. Bij Gassan Diamonds, die sinds 1879 diamanten bewerken en polijsten, kunt u ook de grootste diamanten ter wereld bekijken. Het bedrijf biedt een complete rondleiding, waarbij u de fijne kunst van het diamantslijpen leert! Amsterdam is ook zeer bekend om haar vele grachten, en een van de mooiste manieren om van de stad te genieten is via een van de vele cruises die er worden aangeboden. Amsterdam staat ook bekend als een zeer vrijgevochten stad, die het roken van marijuana en prostitutie in de bekende Rosse Buurt toelaat. As u echter beslist om niet naar de Rosse Buurt te gaan, is dit soort levensstijl grotendeels aan het oog onttrokken. ----Formal English---- Amsterdam - A City of Canals Amsterdam is the capital city of the Netherlands, although technically it is not where the government is seated because The Hague holds Parliament and other major government offices. The city is full of beautiful canals and plenty of sights to see. If you love to sightsee by bicycle, then Amsterdam is the perfect place for you. One of the first things you see when you go to Central Station is a massive, multi-story parking garage for bicycles. The city is also home to book and art markets every week. There are even several businesses that offer bike tours of the city. The city is also home to numerous historical places, like the Anne Frank House, the Rembrandt House, and the Van Gogh Museum. If museums don\'t pique your interest, then there are also many other attractions, like the Artis Zoo and also Madame Tussaud\'s Wax Museum, which is full of wax figures of some of the world\'s most popular celebrities. You can also see the biggest diamonds in the world at Gassan Diamonds, which has been crafting and polishing diamonds since 1879. The business offers a complete tour, during which you can learn the fine art of diamond polishing! Amsterdam is also very well known for its many canals, and one of the most wonderful ways to enjoy the city is on one of the many cruises that are offered. Amsterdam is also known as a very free spirited city that allows pot smoking and prostitution in its well-known Red Light District. However, if you choose not to go into the Red Light District, this sort of lifestyle is largely hidden from view. --------------------------- Learn Dutch with DutchPod101!
