Vondelpark

A great place to visit if you wish to get some rest outdoors during a (sometimes rather hectic) day of sightseeing. It is a wonderful place for cyclists, in-line skaters or joggers. You can also have a picnic there or just sit on a bench and admire the English-styled greenery.

The park was opened in 1867 and has been popular among the locals and the tourists ever since. The park even includes an open-air theatre with free entrance (though some small donations are expected). There is also a statue by Pablo Picasso (called The Fish) installed in the park.
