Parks & Nature

Just a nice place to take a walk, run, play a game of soccer or to have a picnic. Two great paddling pools for kids, where you can easily spend a lazy summerday. You can also rent a canoe and explore the parc by water. It is pretty big, so check the website to plan your visit.

Shopping

Best shopping experience in the Netherlands. All big retailers are situated at the Stadshart, good parking facilities and everything on walking distance. Don't forget to visit Venstra, great bookshop with a friendly coffee place with yummy baked goods from our neighbourhood baker Marcel.

Great farm to take a bicycle ride to through the Amsterdam forest. Loads of goats you can feed a bottle of goats milk, childrens playground and restaurant with locally produced goat-milk icecream, smoothies, cheese and other goods. On sundays, you can practise yoga and enjoy a organic breakfast here. Can be quite busy at Sunny days on the weekends, so if so, be early.

Very romantic movie theater. The Tuschinski theater takes your breath away even before entering the sumptuous lobby! The appointments, the carpets, the ceiling, all combine to fascinate and spellbind the observer. And yes, you can also watch all big movies here :)

"People come to Amsterdam’s Westergasfabriek to meet, work and relax. This beautiful city park, with its historic factory buildings surrounded by expanses of green, also has workplaces, venues for large and small events, and a range of catering, film, theatre and exhibition facilities." Check the agenda for local events; we very much recommend the Sunday Market and Neighbourhood food market. Bit difficult to reach with public transport but worth it!
