It's tulip time

Pin It

Spring has arrived in Amsterdam and with it an unavoidable flood of tulip tourists. Yes, people just can’t seem to get enough of this colourful flower that has long been both an economic resource and a symbol of the Netherlands. If you’re one of these travellers then just look anywhere in the Central Station or on the Damrak for signs advertising trips to the legendary Keukenhof. If, however, you’ve come to the capital of Holland to experience everything it’s got to offer, then you’ve found the right guide. Unlike other city guides, Amsterdam In Your Pocket is a complete guide to the entire city and its seven different districts, so you can find your way to the Museum Quarter in Zuid for 17th-century masterpieces or to Zuidoost for huge concert venues and even bigger shopping malls. You’ll find what you need to enjoy the city’s canals or the funky neighbourhoods of West, Oost and Nieuw-West. You can also discover a rural landscape of farms and charming villages just a short free ferry ride away in Noord, just beyond the Central Station. You’ll also find plenty of practical information in this guide, but thankfully it isn’t just a boring collection of addresses. Read about gay rights pioneer Bet van Beeren who opened what could possibly be the world’s first gay bar or take a look at our feature about Holland’s royal family. Discover the joy that is Queen’s Day and see how you can witness a coronation. This and much more is all at your fingertips with Amsterdam In Your Pocket.
