A Heritage Village in the Netherlands

By Linda Tancs

Zaanse Schans is a neighborhood in the Dutch town of Zaandam near Amsterdam. Offering visitors a glimpse of the Netherlands from a bygone era, it features centuries-old windmills and timber houses painted green. You’ll also find unique crafts, shops, restaurants, museums and scenic walking trails. As a residential neighborhood it’s free to enter, although some museums and the windmills charge an entrance fee.
