AMSTERDAM
City Squares




Although Amsterdam is a densely populated 17th-century city with its central canal ring that has remained largely intact over the centuries, it also has several large city squares that are open and airy.

Leidseplein

Designed in the 17th century on the site of the main gateway to the city, today Leidseplein is, together with
Rembrandt Square, the centre of Amsterdam’s entertainment and nightlife and is home to an endless array of pubs,
restaurants, cafés and street performers.

Museumplein

The most important square off the canal ring. Directly behind the Rijksmuseum and next to Van Gogh Museum
 and the modern art museum Stedelijk Museum. It is closed from the South-West by
the 19th century concert building Concertgebouw.

Munt square

A busy street crossing created on the wide bridge on the Singel, the Munt (Dutch: de Munt) is an important
 orientation point, marked by the Munt tower and the Regulier's Gate, which is a remainder of the old city walls.
Proximity of the Flower market, many cinemas, and two squares -
the Waterlooplein and the Rembrandtplein, make it always very busy.

Waterlooplein

What was traditionally a biggest city market in the proximity of the traditionally Jewish quarters of the town is today
a place dominated by a huge white building of an opera combined with the Town Hall called Stopera.
You will find the market behind the Stopera.

Nieuwmarkt

One of the three markets of the old Amsterdam (Nieuwmarkt, Westermarkt and Nordermarkt) which until today
remain an important spaces for the city life. The Nieuwmarkt still functions as a market on some days of the week,
but its is the proximity of the crowded Red Light District and more and more lively Chinatown
that makes it busy any time of the day. An interesting De Waag (Weigh) building remains centrally on the square.
