Parks & Nature

It's one of Amsterdam's most beautiful parks. Often crowded in the summer, but it is still worth the visit.

Arts & Culture

It is a little known art gallery/museum with a cat theme. Very curious place established by the owner in ode to his late cat JP Morgan. An interesting point is - the cats are free to roam around this museum so you might spot them on the radiator in front of the windows or moseying around. It is quite fun and a change from the other known museums.

Drinks & Nightlife

It is a tiny brown cafe/bar. Saturday/Sunday is always fun - we recommend you drink there when Pieter is working. He's the most helpful and fun barman. Play close attention to the walls, they are made of carved wood - with different faces!

Getting Around

The red light is quite packed, so biking might be a bit difficult at times, but if you want to go anywhere else in Amsterdam - a bike is completely recommended. Starbikes is awesome, they do tours, picnics, and have a great coffee/lunches - very budget friendly. Say 'hi' to Dan and Linda, the owners of the bike shop.
