Amsterdam's best neighbourhoods
Jordaan — the most charming neighbourhood in Amsterdam. Narrow streets, independent boutiques, brown cafés (bruine kroegen), Saturday market.
De Pijp — Amsterdam's multicultural quarter. The Albert Cuypmarkt (largest outdoor market in the Netherlands), great restaurants, young crowd.
Oud-West — trendy, café-dense, Vondelpark access. Excellent for longer stays.
Centrum — the canal ring, Dam Square, the Red Light District. Most central but also most touristy.
Noord — Amsterdam's creative frontier across the IJ. A'DAM Tower, NDSM Wharf, excellent value.
