The history of this market takes its beginning from the 17th century, when people in boats began to offer passers-by buy flowers from them. Now the market is on the shore and does not swim anywhere, but the name remains from the past. Sometimes it seems that flower shops float, but in fact they are firmly installed. In this market, you can buy flowers, bulbs, seeds and even different souvenirs.

The walls of the tower were erected in the 15th century, during that period these walls served to protect Amsterdam from various attacks of riders. But in the 16th century, the walls were destroyed because of the fire, and only one tower was preserved. In the 17th century, reconstruction began, as a result of which the tower gained an elegant spire and watches. Now inside there you can purchase porcelain dishes and all souvenirs.
