The Plantage District, located just a short walk or tram ride from central neighborhoods of De Wallen and Nieuwmarkt, is a surprisingly green and tranquil residential district with plenty to offer visitors. For starters, you’ll notice a massive zoo that dominates the central avenues of the Plantage District. Called the Artis Zoo, or the Natura Artis Magistra, the fenced-in area houses nearly 1000 animal species, along with a planetarium and aquarium. For more nature-themed adventures, take a look at the nearby Botanical Gardens, or enjoy any of the neighborhood’s many public parks.

While you’ve probably heard of Amsterdam’s infamous Museum of Sex, or its Van Gogh Museum, you might not know that the Russian Hermitage Museum has a branch in the Dutch capital. Serving up savvy exhibitions on historical and contemporary trends in visual art, the Hermitage Amsterdam is a must-see destination for any art aficionado. At the east end of the Plantage District, nestled into the urban oasis of Oosterpark, the surprisingly entertaining Tropenmuseum awaits your patronage. Offering a diverse and fascinating introduction to ethnography—often through the lens of pop-culture phenomena—the Tropenmuseum should also rank high in your list of activities.

You’ll love staying in the laid-back Plantage District, but for unrivaled dining, entertainment and nightlife, hop on a tram and head to the city center. Nieuwmarkt’s vibrant market and raucous pubs are just minutes away, as is the Red Light District and Dam Square. When you’ve had enough excitement for the day, you can easily return home to your own quiet corner of Amsterdam.
