Molen Van Sloten

The Sloten Windmill is a functioning draining mill and at the same time the only windmill in Amsterdam which is open daily to the public. The Mill is situated in the outskirts of Amsterdam not far from Schiphol Airport. It controls the water level in the western part of Amsterdam. This area is situated more than 2 meters below sea level. The Sloten Windmill is a rebuilt mill, dating from 1847. The whole year long the Mill can be visited daily (except Jan. 1st, April 27th and December 25 and 26). The windmill is a non-profit organisation, run by volunteers. Knowledgeable guides will gladly explain the working of the mill during a guided tour. And if possible the miller will demonstrate how the top of the mill is turned, or how to stop the mill.

Restaurant Hulscher's

Two brothers with very conflicting personalities and in spite of that on a similar mission: To conquer the whole world with their passion and love for good food! These contrasts can be find everywhere in this historical dining house. But even more important, the mission of the brothers is still going strong. Restaurant Hulschers is all about irresistible grill and seafood dishes, with exclusively fresh and homemade ingredients. Seafood or meat? Like Mrs. Hulscher predicted already more than hundred years ago, at the start of this authentic Amsterdam success story: “The best of both worlds.”

De Blauwe Parade

De Blauwe Parade is the best kept secret of Amsterdam. A traditional Amsterdam bar with a fascinating history that goes back all the way to 1870. Back then the founders bought the property from Gerard Adriaan Heineken, who started his first brewery at this place. Please come inside, admire, settle down and experience the atmosphere of yesteryear and.... taste the best beers and jenever from local breweries. Cheers!
