★★★★★Edited 4 years agoGreat place to relax and connect with the nature. Sit by the water and watch the birds and the boats passing by. It's different from the other parks because of the open space in front of the water, feels good to enjoy an afternoon there and watch the sun set.

★★★★★4 years agoBeautiful park. Surrounded by boats on the Amstel. An awkward walk from Amstel station but once you get to this area pleasantly surprised. Also hardly any tourists
