Wander over to the Zuiderkerk, a 1611 church on a calm square in the old centre. Admire its tower, listen for the noon bells, and take a look at the street art close by.
Full description
Built in 1611 and later depicted by Monet, the Zuiderkerk is a restored church that has moved from worship to hosting conferences, cultural events and concerts. It sits on a small square with some nearby street art and draws far fewer visitors than the big churches around Dam Square.
Reviewers recommend arriving around noon to hear the bells ring, and some use the square as a meeting point. The exterior and surrounding area are the main draw, so a stop of around half an hour is enough.

Great weather all day long. The Sun doesn’t sen until like 9:00 PM Chill city. Friendly and outgoing citizens of Amsterdam were amazing, one of the highlights and shine gems of the city.
