Buy fruits, vegetables, sweets, and clothes at Albert Cuyp Market, the largest street market in the capital city. Following a tradition since 1904, vendors in 300 stalls sell a wide range of products bursting with colors and smells. You can get anything from fish and cameras to makeup and spices. In addition, the prices are usually lower than at regular shops. Look for typical products from Africa and the Middle East, and quench your thirst at some of the numerous ethnic cafes and bars that surround the market.

Typical enjoyable Dutch market. I really enjoyed walking through on Saturday morning. Not too many people. The market opens at 9am but most stalls aren't ready before 10am. Don't miss out on all the traditional food.

Do not miss this market when you visit Amsterdam. Do not buy cheese in the big tourist trap stores, come here! Also the whole neighborhood is very nice, authentic and (mostly) tourist-free. Highly recommended!
