Sneak into the Westerpark community gardens, taste the best appeltaart in the Jordaan district, sleep amid the canals, eat herring at the water’s edge, go bargain hunting at Europe’s largest flea market, enjoy craft beer in the shadow of a windmill, take a dip in the Amstel, or put down your bags in a green oasis … The ‘Soul of ’ series is a new approach to travelling that’s all about wandering around, chance encounters, and unforgettable experiences. Guidebooks that unlock the hidden doors of a city, find its pulse, and delve into every last nook and cranny to uncover its soul.
