Places to go

Vondel Park on bike. You can get a bike for 5 euros a day from Mike's bikes which is on Kerkstraat.

Albert Cupyt for a massive food and bits and pieces market.

Jordaan for cafes and to see cool houses. There are a few cool brown pubs in this area, as they call them, which are the old school style pubs. These all sell strong Belgium beers which are quite common in Amsterdam. La Chouffe is a good one but will knock your socks off.

De Pijp  is nice area just out of central with lots of bars, cafes and restaurants. Locals and ex-pats live here and it is really busy. It's quite hipster but then again so it most of Amsterdam.

The 9 Streets - this has lots of boutique clothes shops and some nice cafes. My favourite clothes shop is Velour which has nicely curated selection of clothes.
