Slip away from central Amsterdam to Nieuwendammerdijk, a hidden dyke street in the north. Stroll past rows of charming little houses along the water and enjoy a slower, village-like side of the city.
Full description
Nieuwendammerdijk is a residential dyke street in Amsterdam-Noord, set apart from the busier parts of the city. Its character comes from the low rows of small, individually styled houses and the calm waterside setting that gives it the feel of a village rather than a capital.
There are no formal attractions here: the appeal is in slow walking, noticing façade details and enjoying the quiet. The area is open at all hours and is best suited to those who prefer local, off-the-beaten-track corners to headline sights.
