This popular tourist destination in The Netherlands, is best known for its traditional Dutch cheese market. During the summer months, locally produced cheeses are displayed outside of the Holland Cheese Museum. Located in the historic weigh house, the museum demonstrates the rich history of the Dutch cheese markets. Outside of the museum, visitors can purchase traditional local fare, as opposed to the well-known brands of Dutch cheeses such as Gouda and Edam. Tourists may also enjoy visiting the National Beer Museum, or "De Boom" as well as admire the city's many intact medieval buildings.
