Located to the west of Leidseplein and Museumplein, the picturesque Vondelpark awaits. Initially unveiled to the public in 1865, this 19th-century park provides a serene sanctuary within the bustling city center. Sprawling across 47 hectares of meticulously manicured lawns, trails, striking flower beds, and majestic trees, the expansive Vondelpark is home to a variety of avian species such as blue herons and wild ducks. With its open-air theater, six play areas for children, and a large pond, Vondelpark is a perfect destination for individuals or groups seeking relaxation or recreation. An ornate iron bandstand hosts musical concerts while a plethora of hotels, restaurants, and cafes are located in the vicinity.
