    Nice quite canal
    Incredibly beautiful canal which you can walk around and experience the relaxing atmosphere present in Edam. Nothing complicated, just a stroll round beautiful houses and nature

    Adorable, Charming Edam!
    Honestly the best experience in Edam is to simply stroll through the town and take it all in. We took a bus from Amsterdam to Edam and wandered through this charming village. We saw a windmill, which is not accessible from the inside as someone actually lives in it. Their old, historic bridges, of which there are several scattered throughout the village, are so cool to see. It's actually quite remarkable that cars can actually drive over them as they don't seem that sturdy. The historic square and cheese market is fun to see. We found the cheese store by the square to be one of the best places to purchase cheese during out trip. Just simply a delightful day trip out of Amsterdam.
