Drinks & Nightlife
Brouwerij 't IJ
7 FunenkadeLovely beers and good atmosphere!
A most beautifull spot in Amsterdam, my favourite at the moment, still not discovered by the crowds. Good food, friendly people, hotel bar, but not overly hotel bar expensive, good music, on Sunday afternoons they sometimes have live music. Best terrace on the water of Amsterdam with a fantastic view!

A cozy cafe in a cozy shopping street, the Utrechtsestraat. In the cafe they have the typical Dutch 'carpets' on the table -:) You can drink jenever, but also a regular beer. Small, cozy and very local.

When you do not want to eat out in a restaurant, but do want to make it easy for yourself, you can get excellent, fresh food here. It's all vegetarian and biological, by the way, and well known and visited by locals.

The Scheepvaartmuseum. You get information in a vivid way and learn how the sea has determined the culture of the Netherlands. Very interesting! Go for a coffee afterwards at the most beautifull terrace (on the water) of Amsterdam, not yet discovered, Pension Homeland.

This museum tells the story of the resistance, collaboration and prosecution in Amsterdam during the 2nd worldwar. I recently visited it with my cousin for the first time, very impressive to learn about the history of Amsterdam in the 2nd worldwar. A good alternative to the Anne Frank museum with its long waiting cues!

The house where Anne Frank, the girl whose diaries about her life as a jewish girl, hidden in the 'achterhuis' became famous, used to live. Since corona there are time slots, and you have to make a reservation way in advance. But it is well worth the visit, and very impressive.

Seeing the city from a boat is real fun and exciting. Since a few years it is possible to rent your own boat and this is something I definitely recommend. There is a boatrental close by (not the address indicated) on the Mauritskade 65. You can rent your own boat for 3 hours for 110 euro's.

Everything Else
This is a sauna only for woman. I would therefore not recommend it, since I do not like 'separation' of man and woman-:), but when it used to be a 'normal' sauna I went there sometimes, it is closeby, simple, and lovely.

This is the street where tram nr. 7 stops. You walk to the stop within 5 minutes. This tram goes straight to the Leidse Plein.
Btw: do visit the Czaar Peterstraat with all the little shops. Actually, this street was chosen in 2015 as the nicest shopping street in the Netherlands!
