Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

The Eastern Harbour District is a residential area just outside the city centre. It is relatively quiet and very convenient. Shops can be found within a 15 min walk / 5 min bike ride from our house, a choice of good and affordable restaurants within a 500 m radius, several museums nearby and easy access to the city centre and several parks by bike or public transport. There is a great organic market with lots of delicatessen on Wednesdays in the area nearby (5 minutes by bike).

Public transport runs every 10-12 minutes from our street in several directions, straight to Amsterdam Central Station (10 mins), Amsterdam Amstel Station (15 mins) and Amsterdam Zuid Station (30 mins). By bike you can comfortable cycle to Dam Square in 20 minutes.

The Eastern Harbour District is a must see for fans of urban architecture. It's also excellent for sunbathing and swimming - right across the street on the quayside, there's a long stretch of jetty where locals go for their daily swim during the summer. And if you are desperate to escape the city, there's the Flevopark at 10 mins cycling or picturesque Durgerdam and Waterland polders (25 mins by bike).

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Where to start? There is just so much to see in Amsterdam. Reserve at least a day or two for Amsterdam-East to discover its many hip espresso bars and restaurants, the famours Brouwerij 't IJ (a brewery in an old windmill) and the excellent genever and liquor distillery in the Flevo Park. Walk or cycle across the nearby residential islands with their special architecture and visit the Scheepvaart museum (Maritime Museum) on your way downtown. Or venture a little bit further, for a great bike ride to picturesque Durgerdam. We can give you some great insiders tips if you want.
