Amstelglorie allotments

Amstelglorie is a large garden park where you'll find an enormous amount of allotments. Cultivated by enthusiastic gardeners from Amsterdam, these allotments are home to small vegetable gardens, fruit trees, ornamental gardens and even ponds here. The park is best explored on foot or by bike where you can take in the play forest, a buzzy bee colony, and much more. It's a wonderful place for people woth green fingers!

Flevopark

The Flevopark is located on the edge of the east side of Amsterdam. Large playing fields and the construction of a harbor for rowing boats were intended to meet the needs of the growing youth of the Indische Buurt.

Johan Cruijff Foundation

Johan Cruijff's first home

This was the former home of the Cruijff family and the place where Johan spent his formative years. More than a year before the birth of Johan, the Cruijff family moved from the Jordaan to this house in Betondorp. Though it looks small, the house was apparently large enough for the family's greengrocer business. Opposite the house, you'll find 'Het Poortje' which is where Johan and his brother Henny played football when it rained. It was inevitable that a window would be smashed.

Jaap Eden ice rink

The Jaap Eden ice skating rink is Amsterdam's largest and best-known ice skating centre featuring an outdoor 400-metre rink (open October to March), an indoor rink, and a beginner's corner.

Flevoparkbad

The Flevoparkbad is an outdoor swimming pool located on the edge of the spacious Flevopark in Amsterdam Oost. Here you’ll find an Olympic-size (50-metre) pool for swimming laps, a much shallower pool for children, and a wading pool for toddlers. It is surrounded by green with plenty of room for soaking up the sun and there is also a large playground. The swimming pool is open every year from the end of April through the beginning of September.

Johan Cruyff Academy

Esplanade De Meer

On the grounds of De Meer is a residential area with links to the past. Stadion De Meer has been the home of Ajax for 62 years. In 1996 the stadium moved to make room for a residential area where many historical traces can be found. Street names refer to the stadiums where Ajax played legendary games and there are bridges named after Ajax players from the 1970s. While the stadium has disappeared, the entire district is an ode to the club, The Esplanade in particular.

Transvaalplein

Where Betondorp is linked to Johan Cruyff, the Transvaalbuurt is inextricably linked to other Ajax players. The neighbourhoods of Ajacieden Keizer, Hulshoff and Suurbier were also frequented by Cruyff and where Bertus Hoogendam and Bennie Muller grew up. Cruyff's peers Piet Keizer, Barry Hulshoff and Wim Suurbier often met here for a game of street football. The level was so high that Cruijff often wanted to join, and no one expected that they would all later play together in Ajax and for the Netherlands.

IJburg Branch Amsterdam Public Library (OBA IJburg)

The collection at IJburg branch consists of a wide selection of library materials catering to children. Because the adult collection contains periodicals only, IJburg residents who are adult library card holders can place free holds on any items in the Amsterdam Public Library’s substantial collection and pick them up at the IJburg branch.  Library card holders wishing to make use of this service should go to www.oba.nl, search in the collection, select an item, then select hold and specify pickup location IJburg.

Park Frankendael

Frankendael is Amsterdam’s only remaining 17th-century country estate. The romantic park has two historic gardens - a period garden and a landscape garden – as well as a sunbathing area and marsh. In the middle of the park is the imposing Huize Frankendael ('Frankendael House') where cultural events are regularly organized. Also in the park are the unique restaurants Merkelbach (in the former coach house) and De Kas (in a propagation house from 1926).
