Amsterdam
The Museum Quarter and the Vondelpark
Just south of Leidseplein, the wide lawns of Museumplein extend south from the Rijksmuseum to Van Baerlestraat, and are used for a variety of outdoor activities, from visiting circuses to political demonstrations. From Museumplein, it's a brief walk northwest along Van Baerlestraat to the sprawling greenery of the Vondelpark, Amsterdam's loveliest park.
