The old centre of Alkmaar is compact and easy to find your way around. Narrow streets, canals and traditional buildings make for interesting waking tours. This is a view towards the old cheese market - now a museum. Pick up a tour map at the VVV and you will find suggested walks through the old apart of the city highlighting the many interesting sights you might otherwisw miss. |
|  | Cheese Centre, Alkmaar In 2004 Alkmaar celebrates its 750th anniversary as an established town. Alkmaar is located in a typical Dutch polder landscape, close to a large nature reserve with dunes, beach, woods and water, water everywhere. Few places in the Netherlands display such a wide variety in terms of natural splendour. |
