NDSM
28 NDSM-Pleinthis area feels very divorced from the
historical city of Amsterdam. Full of modern
buildings, old warehouses and grafitti, NDSM
feels younger, more vibrant. This area is
rapidly changing. There are restaurants,
exhibitions, festivals. Check out their website

Take a walk through the charming
Prinseneiland neighborhood just to the
northwest of Central Station. It's a quiet gem
with hardly any tourists.. Perfect for a stroll to
get a little lost in the winding roads and many
waterways.

The village of Durgerdam with its listed
buildings lies on the Waterlandse Zeedijk
(dyke). The dyke was raised by the labour of
farmers using spades in the 13th century.
Before the sand banks in the Zuiderzee (sea)
expanded and the Afsluitdijk (dyke) cut off
this maritime channel forever, Durgerdam
was an important harbour on the Zuiderzee.
A number of well known captains came from
here. After the decline of the Dutch
merchant navy, the inhabitants lived mostly
of fishing, and in particular, herring fishing. A
supercute little village along the shores of
the IJmeer (IJlake) (go on your bike when the
weather allows it)
