Arts & Culture
The Rijksmuseum is the premier art museum of the Netherlands, and no self-respecting visitor to Amsterdam can afford to miss it. There is an excellent collection of around 200 masterpieces – a sort of 'best of’ group – exhibited in a side section, the Philips wing, and it was recently completely renovated!

Parks & Nature
As vital to Amsterdam as Rembrandt, canals and coffee shops on a sunny day there’s no place better than the Vondelpark. As people from all walks of life descend on this sprawling equivalent to New York’s Central Park, a party atmosphere ensues. Some kick back by reading a book, others hook up with friends to share a spliff or cradle a beer at one of the cafes, while others trade songs on beat-up guitars.

A really cool place near the harbor, it’s worth checking out.
Time Out Amsterdam says: Through the large windows of this cubic building you get great views of the eastern docklands. Come for soup and sandwiches by day and a daily menu of Mediterranean dishes by night. DJs, terrace and an open-air cinema spice it up in summer.
