Quality cheeses - Edam is a very small town not too far from Amsterdam.
The cheese market is very nice and only takes place in summer.
The cheeses that can be purchased in this shop are excellent.

Interesting enough but way over priced - A nice enough introduction to making Edam cheese and the history on the town, but audio only and really not that much there for 8 euros. Much is promotion for the store next door.
