This neighbourhood market in Amsterdam East has been bringing a diverse community together since 1910. One of the oldest markets in the city, the Dappermarkt offers hundreds of street stalls run by a wide variety of merchants speaking languages from around the globe, from Morocco and Turkey to Suriname. Although not exactly the place to find that ideal kitschy souvenir, this authentic marketplace sells all manner of household goods, cheap clothing, second-hand fashion, fresh produce and local specialities like smoked fish and traditional herring. It was also voted the best market in the Netherlands in 2006 and 2007.
