Hermitage Amsterdam
 
The New hermitage Amsterdam opens on June 20th - it certainly looks worth a visit :)

Thanks for the info.

I will be in Amsterdam June 21-24. I guess the museum will be heaving with people having just opened. The link to purchase tickets is not working yet either.

Still, I might wander over. The address is near Waterlooplein?

Thanks for the info and link.

If only the rooms themselves in the Amsterdam version were as rich as those in St. Pete...

Thanks for posting. I still remember how opulent the exhibits were in the Hermitage 20 years ago in then Leningrad. This will certainly be a "must see" for me. I'm glad we won't be there until October so hopefully the exhibit will be less crowded after it's been open a few months Deborah

We stayed at hotel adolesce which is across the street from the Hermitage. A couple of rooms are supposedly open now but we did not visit. A lot of site work was going on during our stay (June 3-10). You could see indoors at night that rooms are finished but exhibits are not set up yet in most rooms visible from the street.
