Broek in Waterland is a lovely village located in the Dutch province of North Holland, Netherlands. Away from the bustling cityscape of Amsterdam, the village lies peacefully between the water and meadows. Enjoy the soothing sights of wooden houses painted in pastel shades and showcasing ceremonial doors, carved and colorful lintels, and stone tiles on the chimneys. Originally built for local families and the rich merchants of Amsterdam in the 17th century, these homes retain their charms to date. Stop by historic monuments such as Neeltje Pater’s tombstone and the church, or explore the waterfront settlements on canoes and boats. Hiking and biking are other options for exploring the countryside. Additionally, the tulip gardens at Keukenhof, the Dutch windmills at Zaanse Schans, and Edam Cheese Market are all close by.
