    If you come to Holland, you surely MUST buy tulips; nice for in your hotel or tent. It's the Worldwide symbol of Holland (although I guess they are probalbly imported from Uganda)!

    You can choose of many different kinds of colours and types....

    Hollandsche Nieuwe is herring eating RAW on the thursday market.

    It's typically Dutch and extremely nice, this long thin silver sea fish!

    Eat it with onion. Pik it up at the tail and then lift it in your mouth, that will be delighted by the taste!! I promise!

    hahaha, this is funny. On the World Famous Thursday Market of Middelburg you can even buy wooden shoes made of cheese hahahahahahahahahahahahaha....!!!!!!!!

    I'm still falling down on the floor when thinking back of all those stupid germans buying souvenirs like this....

    But it's a nice present for home, i guess, but not sure about the taste

    On the market, but also in many shops, many tourists like to buy "Zeeuwsche babbelaars", some kind of sweet (extremely sweet but tasty)!

    On this market stand, you may taste for free :-)). problably it's there only in summer.

    Second hand and antique bookshops. The building next to it has antique maps which I love.

    I used to browse here some 15 years ago already and bought quite a few books which I used to have when I was little but were lost.

    Middelburg is the capital of the province, so you would expect quite a few shops. You're right, there are plenty of shops. But many of the chain variety. I did not see many shops that entice you to browse local products.

    The interesting shops (books, wine, galleries) are a bit out of the town center.
    You'll find some nice shops in the triangle Vlasmarkt/Beenhouwerssingel/Gortstraat. That's outside the pedestrian area.

    Don't go fashion shopping in Middelburg. You'd be better off in Breda.

    Personally I find nearby Vlissingen to be much more attractive shopping than Middelburg.

    Also on the market, you can buy very cheap fruit and a big choice!

    Although it's almost all imported stuff (Holland is mostly an applecountry), it's still fresh. isn't it amazing!

    Cheap? no!
