Westerpark

Located in Amsterdam West, the Westerpark is a wonderful place to walk, skate, relax or have a picnic with friends. This green expanse dotted with trees and ponds is part of the Gashouder complex, a former gasworks that was completely renovated in recent years. Besides the park, this area is home to a nice selection of cafés, restaurants and bars, as well as an art-house cinema and a variety of small creative businesses. Many large cultural events take place here throughout the year, and certain buildings can be rented by the public for events, parties or even weddings.

Zuiderkerk

The Zuiderkerk was designed by Hendrick de Keyser and was built in the early seventeenth century. It was the first Protestant church in the city. The church is a pseudo-basilica and consists of a central nave and two slightly lower aisles. The gable ends on the north and south sides are very richly decorated in Renaissance shapes. Unusual for that time are the rectangular windows. No church services have been held since 1929.

Pong: Pingpongbar

Everyone complains about it, everything has to be faster, we spend too much time behind a screen, on a phone or tablet. This makes us forget something important. The pleasure and importance of playing. At Pong: Pingpongbar we want to make playing accessible again and what game is more fun, exciting and nostalgic than ping pong? Call or text your friends, take a bath and come to Pong: Pingpong bar.

Van Gogh & Rembrandt in Amsterdam

Without a doubt, Rembrandt van Rijn and Vincent van Gogh are two of the greatest Dutch artists of all time. And although they seem to be miles apart, the works of the Dutch baroque master and the world-renowned post-impressionist painter from the nineteenth century turn out to be more similar than you could ever have imagined.

Fantastic news from ARTIS. On Friday afternoon, August 16, a healthy baby giraffe was born. The birth went smoothly, and within two hours, the calf was standing and nursing from its mother. The ARTIS team is relieved and happy. The birth is great news for the European breeding program for this endangered species.
