East of the Amstel

East of the Amstel

A quieter neighborhood, established by wealthier Jewish families from the late 19th century up to the Second World War, this area has wide boulevards, parks, and elegant architecture similar to the neighborhood around the Museum District. This decidedly posh, charming, non-touristy residential area is a great place to wander through. It has a few diverse family attractions and excellent museums.
