Me and my wife had wanted to go to the zoo in Amsterdam for the last 5 years but the weather has never been good enough , well this time last Tuesday when we got up the sun was shining , so we got up and went , The Zoo was really really good , the animal enclosures were large with plenty of toys and amusements for the animals , they were clean and the food laying around was fresh , loads to see and do and plenty of cafes to stop and have a warm drink . Overall a great place to go and can't wait to go back next year .

The eastern end, near the Golden Bend, is not for raucous thrill seekers. It's quite placid, though move back, around the Rembrandt Square, and it's lively. It is centrally located--perhaps 15 minute stroll to museum square and 10 minutes to Dam Square. The city is extremely walkable--compact and flat.

Lovely area to have a stroll around, even in the rain! Everybody ignores it in the city. Walked there alone at night and felt safe

We visited TunFun in the middle of Feb. Situated underneath a tram line & intersection. Excellent play area for children. Large soft play jungle gyms for different ages. Cafe serves food & drinks, lovely and warm in there. Will definitely visit again. Used the tram to Waterlooplein, unsure if any car parking is nearby.
