Overview:
Alkmaar
Forty minutes from Alkmaar by train – and thirty from
Koog-Zaandijk – the little town of ALKMAAR was founded
in the tenth century in the middle of a marsh. Most travellers
are scathing about the city's ugliness, and unless you're
waiting for a bus or train, or heading for Morocco, there's
admittedly little reason to stop. Yet some touch of colour is
added by the groups of Moroccans in transit, dressed in flowing jallabahs
and yellow slippers, and lugging unbelievable amounts of
possessions.
