Take a walk through the culturally rich Museum Square, aka Museumplein, where the creations of Van Gogh, Rembrandt and many other Dutch artists are housed in the city’s three main museums –
Rijksmuseum,
Stedelijk Museum and the
Van Gogh Museum.
In addition, the Museum Quarter is home to the magnificent Concertgebouw where you can catch a free lunchtime classical concert. The acoustics of the concert hall are so highly regarded; the hall is often placed in the top three finest concert halls in the world. This is a really nice area with an easy-going atmosphere; you culture-vultures will love it! Even if you are not interested in the musical nature of the building those of the architectural persuasion will definitely find this a rare prize.
