Hindeloopen is an old city on the North of the Netherlands on the IJsselmeer. It lies within the municipality of South West Friesland. It is famous because of the Hindeloopen art and hindeloopen costume. The shipping trade brought the population of Hindeloopen a great prosperity. The 17th and 18th century were especially golden times.
