Amsterdam Wetlands

Get a taste of real Dutch living in the authentic village of Ilpendam. Ilpendam found its origin in the 12th century, when a dam was built in the river De Ilp. The name is derived from this. You probably never heard of Ilpendam before. That's because it is a well-hidden gem, hidden in the Amsterdam Wetlands. Just 10 minutes away from Volendam or Amsterdam but with the peace and quiet to wind down after a day of adventures.
