Fodor's Choice
Westergasfabriek was formerly a gas factory that, in 2003, was refurbished into a cultural hot spot and is also the home of many festivals throughout the year. A handful of venues are located along the promenade running parallel to the spacious Westerpark, including restaurants (Bar Kantoor, Raïnaraï, De Bakkerswinkel), a movie theater (Het Ketelhuis), an old-school arcade bar (Ton Ton Club), and even a small petting zoo. Springtime visitors, don’t miss the sakura cherry blossoms when they take over Westerpark.
