About Welcome in Amsterdam

Welcome in Amsterdam is a visitor guide to the city’s sights: the museums on Museumplein, the houses of the canal ring, the parks and the churches. Each page answers the practical questions first. What does it cost? When is it open? Do I need a timed ticket? Which tram stops closest?

How the site is laid out

The city is read the way it was built. The canal ring is the way in, and the districts around it (Centrum, Jordaan, Museumplein, De Pijp, Plantage and Noord) each have a page. Every sight carries a numbered gable stone, so a page of sights reads like a row of houses on the water.

Where the figures come from

Prices, opening hours and closing days are taken from the venue’s own website and dated when we check them. How we write explains the routine.

Independent

We do not run any venue and we do not sell tickets. Some guides link to a booking partner, always below the venue’s own link and always labeled. Partner links explains what that means.
