Some numbers about what you'll find behind the 300 year old gates: The garden part has 8000 sorts of plants from all continents. The greenhouses have over 4000 different sorts. A big part of the collection is in Amsterdam thanks to the Dutch East India Company (VOC). Besides getting into history and nature, Hortus is also great for a chill session.

The Amsterdam School is "the other" architectural style you might associate with this city (the first being the typical Dutch Canal house style). There are a few examples dotted through the city, namely Het Schip (the ship) and Sheepvaarthuis, though this is the most centrally located and you can enjoy a good film and Heineken at the same time!

My friends/familymembers that come to visit me usually want to see the regular stuff: Damsquare, Museumsquare, Red Ligth District etc. Those areas are worth a visit, but they don't represent what it's like to live in this city. Want to see Amsterdam like a local? Take a stroll through the Plantage and visit some amazing spots: my friends loved it!

Not only the great collection, but also the size of the Stedelijk Museum make it so popular. Depending on your art-absorbing powers, seeing all the art work will take 2-3 hours. So, you will be mind blown, but not too exhausted for another event that day.

With five flours of fun, you will do your kids a great pleasure. After a visit to NEMO their bodies and minds will be completely exhausted from all the playing and learning. And in most cases, the same goes for adults.

If you look at the building from the outside, you would never think that it fits 4 cinema's, a 1200m2 exposition room, a filmlab and the biggest film library of The Netherlands. You should definitely visit EYE if you are a movie freak, but also the cinemas have massive leg and arm space and the quality of the sound.. Man.

The care-house has been a dependance of the famous St. Petersburg Hermitage since 2009. Beautiful (art-)objects from its treasuries are shown here. Because of their co-operation with the Amsterdam Museum, the 'Portrait Gallery' exhibition can be visited. You can spy the 'brothers and sisters' of Rembrandt's famous Nightwatch on 30 group portraits.

Built in 1942, Het Badhuis was one of the last public baths to be constructed in Amsterdam. In the 1970s, it quickly became a popular meeting spot for locals. Recently it reopened as a restaurant. You can still see evidence of showers by looking closely behind the bar. Examine the old fixtures such as the black and white tiles on the bottom floor.

Visit the Stadsarchief if you want to dig into the history of Amsterdam and get to know the city's hero's. You can see very old, but interesting footage of the city from the 20's and on. A lot of nice portraits of the canals through the years.

Artis opened its doors in 1838 and is the oldest zoo in The Netherlands. It is sometimes criticized for being too small (not the cages, but the zoo itself). And yes, it is not very big, but instead of giving the animals little space, in Artis the humans get a little less space.

What I am saying is that at the Hortus you feel like you've entered another world - yet it still has the exciting thrill of the city. There are so many wonderful things to discover there, as you pass by scenic gardens that remind you of childhood-fairytales. In wintertime I love going into the greenhouse and fantasize that I'm in the tropics!
