Jordaan Quarter

Travel back in time to the golden ages of the city. If you are a student, an artist or just a young professional, then you need to check out the Jordaan Quarter. However, this does not mean that others are restricted to visit the place that was primarily constructed for the poor. It is one of the most talked about and one of the most visited too. This is the best place for you to be if you are on the lookout for a quick bite of food, or are just interested in having your hair dressed. Some of the most popular shops and bars of Amsterdam can be found in close proximity to the Jordaan Quarter.

If you are so interested, you can opt in for a two hours special guided tour. However, the best way to get a feeling of this place is by strolling alone or along with fellow tourists.

This area was initially built in 1612 and its prime purpose was to serve as a neighborhood for immigrants. A total overhaul of the place was done during the early seventies and as a result of that it now attracts an assorted mixture of students and artists.

If you are interested in shopping and enjoying a tasty bite or two, then this is the place you need to visit.
