NETHERLANDS – KLOMPENMAKERIJ RATTERMAN


In 2005 I was in Amsterdam, Netherlands for working purpose. The stay included weekend so I bought a short one day bus trip round the Netherlands. The first part of it was a visit of Amstelveen. Unfortunately, the flower auction was closed because it was Sunday. But the bus stopped in front of small cozy wooden shoes manufacture called Klompenmakerij Ratterman. There were a lot of clogs inside, even colored. The clogs are one of the characteristic things of Netherlands. The visit was quite short but interesting. One could see a craftsman making clogs, or to buy them as a souvenir. 
Are not they beauiful?
