Even then, a significant amount of customary wooden houses and windmills could still be located in and around Zaanstad - plus the world-popular Zaanse Schans outdoor museum – beside more current 19th- and 20th-century factory tradition. The single towns could be simply toured on foot, but to get around it is preferable to hire a bike, or to utilise general transport.
