🌬️🧱 Lego Town & Windmills near Amsterdam – A Fairytale Combo! 🇳🇱✨

Just outside Amsterdam, you’ll find two of the most Instagram-worthy Dutch icons: the Lego-like town of Zaandam and the traditional windmills of Zaanse Schans. Both are easy to combine in one day trip! 🌷🚲

🏙️ Zaandam (Lego Town)

Famous for the Inntel Hotel, designed to look like stacked toy houses in green and blue 💚💙.

The whole area feels like walking through a Lego village 🧱 – playful, colorful, and perfect for photos 📸.

Just 10–12 minutes by train from Amsterdam Central 🚆.


🌬️ Zaanse Schans Windmills

A short hop from Zaandam, this open-air museum shows the Netherlands’ windmill heritage ⚙️.

See working mills that still grind spices, oil, and flour 🌾.

Cute wooden houses, cheese shops 🧀, and clog-making demos 👞 add to the Dutch countryside feel.


✨ Best Way to Explore
Morning: Head to Zaandam to marvel at Lego-like architecture.
Afternoon: Visit Zaanse Schans for iconic windmills, bike rides 🚲, and canalside walks 🚤.

💡 Tip: Wear comfy shoes 👟 – both places are walkable and full of picture-perfect corners.
