Jordaan area in Amsterdam

One of the most well known, and popular areas in Amsterdam is the Jordaan area of Amsterdam. The expansion of the city was originally to house emigrants and working class people. Although the place used to be very poor and filled with people, now you will find many wonderful markets, monuments, art studios, and so much more. If you are looking for markets in the Jordaan area then you will love the Lindenmarkt (or the Lime Market), a Market on the Westerstraat (West Street), and the Flea Market on the Noordermarkt (North Church).
