Amstelveen

Amstelveen owes its existence to the Amstel River, which once played a crucial role in connecting Amsterdam to the rest of the Netherlands. Since then, Amstelveen has grown into a lively city with plenty of options for recreation and entertainment. It’s also the second greenest city in the Netherlands! Museums, culture, events and shopping are just a few of the things waiting to be discovered in this charming city centre with a real neighbourhood feel.
