Amsterdam - Vondelpark & the Old South

Around the grassy expanse of Museumplein, Amsterdam’s top three art museums – the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and Stedelijk – are all lined up in a walkable row. You could easily spend a full day here alone.

- plunging into the Golden Age trove of Dutch Masters paintings, Delft tiles and gilded dollhouses at the Rijksmuseum

- being awestruck by the tortured artist’s vivid brushstrokes of yellow sunflowers and purple blue irises at the Van Gogh Museum

- admiring the abstractions of Mondrian, Matisse and their modern compadres at the Stedelijk Museum

Coverage includes: Neighbourhood Top Five, Local Life, Getting There & Away, Sights & Activities, Eating, Drinking & Nightlife, Entertainment, Shopping and Sports & Activities.
