During your visit to Amsterdam, you sometimes come across surprising places and see unexpected things. For example, the Beurspassage from the Damrak to the Nieuwendijk is a real hidden treasure. Beautifully designed by local artists, this passage tells the story of the special relationship between Amsterdam and water. Its 450-square-metre mosaic surface, Italian flooring and characteristic chandeliers complete the picture. Walk leisurely through the passage and enjoy the colourful and vibrant scenes that adorn the walls. This special place is definitely worth a visit during your trip to Amsterdam.
