Welcome to Holland above Amsterdam

Holland above Amsterdam, the best Holland has to offer. Moulded by our ancestors through unremitting labour. Windmills, dykes, polders, historical and modern villages and cities. The rich nature gives the area colour. We are happy to share our part of the world with you. Get to know the endless possibilities and it’s friendly, welcoming and straightforward inhabitants.

Discover the three beautiful regions

The Kop van Noord-Holland borders the North Sea, Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer. Discover the former island of Wieringen, the cozy Willemsoord in Den Helder or get some fresh fish at the market in Den Oever.

What was in those beautiful warehouses in Hoorn and Enkhuizen that belonged to the VOC, among others? And who had the legendary Radboud Castle built in Medemblik? The rich history of West Friesland comes to life here. Discover the exciting stories and travel back in time.

If you say Alkmaar, you say: cheese. But this attractive city really has more to offer. Such as wonderful shopping – the City of Cheese has been in the top ten of shopping cities for years. Or get to know the artists’ village of Bergen and the Bergense School and the traditional Dutch Egmond aan Zee with many kilometers of wonderful beaches.
