Marken, Netherlands

Wheelchair-accessible entrance
Marken is a village-island-peninsula in the municipality of Waterland in the province of North Holland, Netherlands. Marken is known in particular for its authentic, colorful timber houses, white drawbridges, and fishing harbor. Marken was separated from the mainland in the 13th century by a storm. There then followed centuries of isolation for the population, who earned their daily bread by fishing. Marken was only connected to the mainland in 1957 by building an embankment, and has been a peninsula since then. Nonetheless, Marken has still kept its authentic character and the residents cherish their traditions.

So quaint! Amazing little village!! So beautiful and breathtaking! Great beer and apple pie! A must see if you don't mind a little walk into the village. Hotel in the village was beautiful from the outside but we didn't stay the night. I would definitely come back!!
