One of our very favourite spots. A couple of rundown industrial buildings (it used to be a gas factory), now turned into a cultural hotspot with events, a city beach (with sand!), a bar and a really great atmosphere. When the weather is nice, you will find lots of people swimming and enjoying the sun in beach chairs. You can grab food and drinks from the fridges.

Take the free Buiksloterweg ferry to Tolhuistuin (or THT). It used to be only a small hidden park (don't forget to visit that too), but now it's also a nice restaurant and a music venue.

A former tram depot that recently transformed into a market hall (different food stands with a central terrace), a cinema and the Local Goods Store (authentic things made in Amsterdam or by Amsterdammers - perfect souvenirs). It's really worth a visit. If you go on a weekday, you can also stroll along the Ten Kate market around the corner of the entrance. The neighborhood is really lively and there are lots of cafés and bars.

Behind Central Station you can take a ferry (it's free) which will take you to the other side of the IJ. This area of Amsterdam is really upcoming in the last couple of years.
NDSM is a former shipwharf. Its landmark is a big crane (you can already see it from the station). Nowadays the terrain is a cultural hotspot but the edgy vibe is still very much alive. Enjoy food, drinks and a beautiful view on the skyline at 'Pllek' or 'Noorderlicht'.
