Deventer book fair

 We visited the Deventer book fair this weekend, a huge event that takes place each year on the first Sunday of August.

A total of 878 market stalls through the city streets and along the IJssel River were selling books: novels, history books, comic books, thrillers, childrens books etc etc
This photo is from the central square, and taken in the morning when it wasn't very crowded yet. According to the news that we heard later, 130,000 people visited Deventer on this day.

  3. I would love to see this, but I imagine that most of the books are Dutch ones...

  4. Sorry onze bestaande en niet bestaande boekenkasten zitten al vol. Deze keer maar even overgeslagen.

  5. Ja het blijft altijd een leuk evenement, maar na de Gay Parade hadden we de volgende dag geen puf meer voor nog meer mensenmassa's.
