Back to Black

A local's guide to Amsterdam. If you want to see and experience things in Amsterdam the authentic way then search no further, this guide is for you. I've lived here for 6 years and taken the time to get to know almost all the neighbourhoods, uncovering some true gems. It's time to go out and about as if you were a local, not a tourist. 😉

Westerpark, once an industrial heartland, has transformed into one of Amsterdam's most creative and vibrant neighborhoods. Former warehouses and factories now house cultural spaces and hip cafés, while lush green spaces provide a perfect escape. Explore this neighborhood in 1 day with this nifty map!
