Valkenburg Shopping Tips by tompt Top 5 Page for this destination

Kantoor boekhandel Crolla: books and stationery

This shop is very small and there are books and stationary all over, in the racks, on stacks, on the floor.........
But whatever you need they have got it.

The clerck is looking old and shabby, but he knows his stuff, and helps you like a customer want to be treated.

We bought a book on walking in Limburg here. And because it was looking like it was going to rain he packed it in plastic to protect it from the water.

What to buy: Valkenburg is known for its many tourist souvenir shops. But should you really buy something like this?

There are statues in all sorts and shapes. Animals, dolls, life like or made out of delfts blue. You choose...
