Outstanding! Zou could literally spent the whole day here! It's so majestic! Later after visiting the museum, make sure to relax and have a picnic break in the park right behind!

After taking a break and visiting Rijksmuseum head over to Van Gogh museum! Marvelous pieces of art and excellent tour guides can make your visit even more interesting and fun!

Shopping mall located in this beautiful majestic building! It's near the central station so you can't miss it! Very cool on both the outside and inside!
Magna Plaza
Very popular place on Tiktok! Book as much in advance as you can to get the best time frame! this is an extraordinary experience!

Royal palace of Amsterdam! Located in city center of Amsterdam right across the Magna Plaza. It was under construction when we visited Amsterdam but by the time this list is shared it's gonna be finished and revealed to the public!
Koninklijk Paleis
Beautiful church located near city center. Make sure to come about earlier since it gets really crowded very fast!

Joe & The Juice
One of my favs! Lovely brunch spot that offers a variety of different breakfas and lunch ides! The prices are okay not too expansive and the staff is very friendly!
Flo's Deli
Very popular spot in Amsterdam that just opened their fourth location! Similar to Bagels& Beans but with their own twist! Affordable but can get crowded since it's very popular.
BagelBoy
You'll definitely need a reservation for this cafe since it's almost always full + there is almost always a line of people waiting outside! Their sandwiches are truly amazing and worth the hype!
Chun Café
Super cute small restaurant with healthy food options! A bit further away from the city center, located in a quiet part of Amsterdam where it's less crowded. Affordable prices and nice staff!
Lavinia Good Food
Amazing smash burgers! We accidentally stumbled upon this cute little place and had the most amazing lunch. They were so good we went there two days in a row!
Maijard Smashburgers
Shops
I just love sweets too much to miss out on all of these different spots! They are all amazing and worth the hype. I'm getting hungry just by looking at them.
Don't let the huge line in front of this shop discourage you! It moves quickly, since their is only one type of cookie, and the staff is super professional and kind. The cookies are AMAZING! I am very sceptical when it comes to TikTok trends but this...
Van Stapele Koekmakerij
Very cute little bakery we accidentally stumbled upon. So aesthetically pleasing with amazing croissants! Loved the pistachio one!
Luna's Amsterdam
Cute little gelato shop with amazing gelato and excellent selection of flavors! The pistachio and nocciolla were amazing! There is always a crowd but it's worth the wait!
Miuz Gelato Artigianale
To me - worth the hype even if they are a little bit pricey! They seemed very crispy and dry but they are actually super soft and the filling is delicious. I recommend the chocolate-hazelnut one!
Van Wonderen Stroopwafels
Very cool concept of serving food! Vending machines meet fast food! The food is actually really good, fresh & delicious! There are rarely any crowds and it's really good if you want something quick to go!
