Trips during Summer 2003 along the flower market in Amsterdam( I am not sure that it's Singel Gracht or not?) It's one of the "must visit" spots of Amsterdam seeing the whole street selling flowers...looks like Paak Klong Ta Lad in Bangkok except the fact that in bangkok the sale happen during really early in the morning 3-4 a.m. onwards but ,since the average temperature in Holland is about 12c which is good for flower, they can sold in the day time in Holland.
Flower here is so beautiful, and easily found at anyplace (plus not too hot weather help everything's fine). Comparing in Bangkok, it's only be found in a quite expensive flower shop with air conditioning to save flower from dehidration.
These are suveniors easily found anywahere tourists are, showing different kind of typical Dutch house which remarkbly narrow and tall. The reason why it is so narrow is that once the housing tax is calculated from the width of the facade. To solve the problem and integrating with how to live in the narrow space, they compensated the narrow facade with the more depth of the building to fit with their requirements. From that reason, it became the identity of Amsterdam houses.
