The Flower Market is a tourist attraction and a functioning market in one. Although it’s often called the world’s only floating flower market, most of the browsing takes place on dry land as the stalls are located on barges moored on the Singel and although it’s quite attractive when walking past, it’s actually a bit of an eyesore when viewed from the other side of the canal. You can buy bulbs and seeds for all kinds of plants and flowers and we have to admit that we’ve also picked up a Venus flytrap kit here, which was a huge hit with kids at home. The sellers will also send bulbs to your home address abroad and they know which countries don’t allow the importation of plant materials, so you don’t have to worry about having your purchase confiscated at customs. Locals also buy flowers here so the prices are actually quite reasonable. There are plenty of cafés and souvenir shops opposite the market.
