Sightseeing

Lively neighborhood with variety of entrepreneurs. This is the neighborhood you are in! It was Holland's first neighborhood to be designed as a society in total. Every space was set up to it's destiny. In the nineties the neighborhood came to a deep low. Since then it has been flourishing and today it is one of the hippest places to be of the country!

This is my favorite part of the city. Although also some parts have been renovated throughout the years, these three islands still hold the romantic atmosphere of centuries ago. The rich merchants used to live here. It is quiet and not touristic because most tourists don't know about it. And there are not many shops.

Parks & Nature

I like the Sloterplas to run around. It really feels like you are out of the city and it is yet so close.
