Ahoy Sixpack!
Veils plenty of them, Burka's only in certain area's, Osdorp, Slotermeer, Amsterdam Oost and then relatively seldom. No Burka's in downtown Amsterdam, but veils combined with traditional non-Western clothing a lot.
Very few veils on Northern Cyprus and no burqa's at all. Women wear jeans and shirts.
