That’s what I missed in Amsterdam – I didn’t realise how much I would until I spent 48 hours around the city centre!
By the third day I just had to find a park – or at least some grass (but the kind you can sit on!!) Unfortunately I was not impressed with what I found – obviously I am spoiled in my home town for green areas. Maybe there are nice parks further out of the city, but there is a definite lack of green space in the centre.
The 2 parks I visited were disappointingly boring and in my opinion, uncared for. They also seemed stark and characterless. My pic was taken in The Vondelpark.
I was so disappointed with the park we visited near the Botanical Garden, that I only stayed 5 minutes and didn’t even bother to take a pic!

Interesting offbeat tips on Amsterdam! I had a fine time when I was there a couple years ago (rented a bicycle and rode all around) but I missed the Chinese Temple and the hammock shop, so I'll make a note of them for next time. | Dabs Sat May 3, 2008 21:46 UTC
We may have a few hours in Amsterdam on the way back from Prague, it looks like there are some *ahem* interesting things to see and do here ;-) |
