De Plantage

Located just east of the city centre, De Plantage is Amsterdam’s lush cultural garden packed with attractions in a very walkable area. The elegant squares and leafy boulevards offer a refreshingly green and spacious contrast to the tightly packed streets and cobblestones of the canal ring. Amongst the theatres, concert halls and public parks, you'll find a wealth of institutions dedicated to fine art, Jewish culture and natural history, including Artis Zoo, the botanical gardens, H'ART Museum and the Jewish Museum.
