The NDSM Wharf is a new development about 2 Km west of A’Dam Lookout. Once a shipyard, it is now a hip destination with a bohemian vibe. I personally love to walk from A’Dam Tower to NDSM, but renting a bike would be more comfortable and faster. Alternatively, you can take the ferry back to Amsterdam Centraal and then another one to NDSM. At the wharf, you’ll find plenty of street art as well as art installations. The IJ-Hallen flea market takes place for two days every month and is the largest in Europe. My preferred activity here is bungee jumping from the 50-meter-high platform over the Faralda Crane Hotel. NDSM Warf is the idyllic place to spend your last evening in the city. It has several bars, cafes, restaurants, and clubs. Pllek, for example, is a cool hangout space and bar with a beach along the river. They also host open-air film screenings during the summer months. Café de Ceuvel, on the other hand, is a rustic spot that focuses on serving delectable bites made using sustainably grown organic produce. Photo Credit: Ronni Kurtz - Unsplash.com
