Amsterdam Architecture City

2024, 128 pages, 13 x 23 cm, pb, English

Amsterdam is home to numerous architectural treasures dating from the Middle Ages to the present. This guide presents 100 must-see buildings and places, including the Royal Palace, Rijksmuseum, Artis Zoo, Amsterdam School housing blocks, and the latest architectural marvels: the Sluishuis (BIG and Barcode Architects), Jonas (Orange Architects), and the Valley (MVRDV). Not only does the book highlight things to see, it also suggests what to do while visiting: lunch in De Hallen, a movie at Theater Tuschinski, a night out in the Tolhuistuin, or an overnight stay in one of the city’s many bridge keepers’ houses.
