Amstelpark

Amstelpark is one of Amsterdam’s crowning glories of the local park scene. The location of the 1972 Floriade, an international horticultural exhibition that takes place in the Netherlands every ten years, the park has attempted to keep and maintain as many of the original exhibitions as possible.

Located along the Amstel River in the southern section of Amsterdam, there are unique attractions of note even before entering the park’s boundaries. The Riekermolen windmill, made famous as a subject of a Rembrandt sketch, lies just south of the park, with a statue of the artist close by.
