Exploring Amsterdam by Tram Exploring Amsterdam by tram Trams are a convenient and simple way to get around Amsterdam. But even more than just a way to get from A to B, a tram ride can be a sightseeing tour in itself, taking in some of the city’s best sights and attractions along the way. There are three tram routes (1, 2 and 5) that travel up and down a central ‘spine’ of Amsterdam, from Centraal Station to Museumplein and back again. Tram #1, #2 and #5 Stop: Centraal Station As Amsterdam’s main transport hub, Centraal Station is a familiar starting point for most visitors to the city. The spectacular building opened its doors in 1889, and was designed by architect Pierre Cuypers, who also designed the Rijksmuseum. What to see and do: • Check out the vintage shops, hip cafes and arty design stores of vibrant Haarlemmerstraat to the west • Take the free ferry from behind Centraal Station to trendy Amsterdam Noord • Explore Oosterdok to the east of the station, making sure to take in the view of the city from NEMO’s rooftop terrace and stop for a drink at Hannekes Boom. From Centraal Station, the tram heads south down Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, once the city’s defence line (‘burgwal’ means ‘bastion wall’). Stop: Nieuwezijds Kolk Continue south, passing behind the impressive Nieuwe Kerk on your left. Despite being called ‘New Church’, this imposing monument actually dates from the 15th century and is only ‘new’ in relation to the nearby Oude Kerk (old church) which was deemed too small to be the parish church of Amsterdam’s expanding population in 1408. No longer used for worship, the Nieuwe Kerk now hosts regular exhibitions and events. Stop: Dam You’re now in the heart of Amsterdam, on the edge of the city’s most important public square. You’ll need to hop off the tram to visit Dam Square itself, which is concealed from view by the Royal Palace and Nieuwe Kerk. What to see and do: • Visit Dam Square, home to the Royal Palace and Nieuwe Kerk. • A four minute walk east along narrow Molsteeg and Torensteeg alleys will bring you to the inner canal ring, and the historic Torensluis bridge. This excessively wide bridge once formed the foundations of a tower, the dungeons of which are still visible underneath the bridge. • Take an eight minute walk to Anne Frank House, Homomonument and Westerkerk to the west, or the Red Light District to the east. The tram now continues south, passing the Amsterdam Museum on the left and the famous Haesje Claes restaurant on the right (an ornate Dutch restaurant spread over six historic houses) before stopping at Spui. Stop: Spui Spui is a great place to get off and explore. From the historic cobbled square itself, known for its literary connections thanks to a selection of book stores and a weekly book market, a short walk in any direction will take you to a range of interesting spots. What to see and do: • Just behind Spui square is the hidden courtyard of the Begijnhof. This cluster of medieval houses arranged around a pretty courtyard has provided refuge and sanctuary to Beguine women since the 14th century and makes for a tranquil experience in the heart of the city. • Just across the Singel canal from Spui is the edge of the 9 Streets shopping district – a quaint maze of lanes and canals lined with beautiful clothing boutiques, artisan traders and vintage stores. • Discover ancient treasures and artefacts at the Allard Pierson museum, a three minute walk to the east. From Spui, the tram now leaves the central part of Amsterdam and heads south-east into the canal ring. The first canal you’ll cross is Singel, the inner most waterway of the canal ring which served as a moat around the city until its expansion in 1585. Stop: Koningsplein This busy square connecting the Singel and Herengracht canals isn’t the prettiest thanks to its hectic maze of criss-crossing tram tracks, bikes lanes and roads, but it’s a well-connected focal point for exploring a range of museums and attractions – not to mention Amsterdam’s main shopping high streets. What to see and do: • Discover the story of Amsterdam’s canals at the Grachtenhuis (canal house) museum • Pick up some fresh blooms at Amsterdam’s world famous floating flower market which lines the Singel from Koningsplein • Shop til you drop on Amsterdam’s main shopping thorughfares, Kalverstraat, Heiligeweg (to the north) and Leidsestraat (to the south). • For some culture with a feline twist, walk two minutes along the Herengracht canal to the Kattencabinet (cat cabinet) – a museum dedicated entirely to cats From Koningsplein, the tram continues south, crossing over three canals and stopping at two, both of which make great points to disembark and explore the many delights of the canal ring. Stops: Keizersgracht, Prinsengracht, Leidseplein You’re now out of the canal ring and heading through infamous nightlife hub Leidseplein. Here you’ll find some of Amsterdam’s leading music venues and theatres, not to mention an overwhelming selection of bars, restaurants and nightclubs. What to see and do: • Get out here for music venues like Melkweg and Paradiso, theatres DeLaMar and Stadsschouwburg, and the Pathe City multiplex cinema • From here it’s a short walk across the bridge to the northern end of Vondelpark, Amsterdam’s largest park. Here, tram route 1 veers off along the Overtoom (a buzzing street lined with bars, cafes and trendy design stores) while numbers 2 and 5 continue along to the Rijksmuseum and Museumplein. Stop: Rijksmuseum (#2 & #5 only) What to see and do: - Visit the world-famous Rijksmuseum, with its vast collection of Golden Age masterpieces and priceless works - Soak up the cultural atmosphere of Museumplein, (don’t forget to have your picture taken at the I amsterdam sign!) - Wander through Museumplein to visit the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum and the Royal Concertgebouw concert hall.

    NOTAT Bilag 6 Teknik- og Milj forvaltningen Til TMU, ØU og BR 03-04-2009 Sagsnr. 2007-44177 Kommunikationsplan for Marmormolen Dokumentnr. 2009-196936 Baggrund Sagsbehandler I oktober sidste år blev Steven Holl Architects kåret som vinder af en Birgitte Fjord Jensen arkitektkonkurrence med sit projekt til et futuristisk vartegn for Københavns Havn med to kontortårne og en gang- og cykelbro i 65 meters højde. Konkurrencen var udskrevet af By og Havn og ATP Ejendomme. Konkurrencen omfattede desuden en idékonkurrence om at skabe to nye byrum på spidserne af henholdsvis Langelinie og Marmormolen. Udbygningen af Marmormolen er et led i Københavns Kommunes vision om at åbne flere af Københavns havneområder, så københavnerne kan få større glæde af dem. Marmormolen ligger i dag mellem Nordhavn og Langelinie i det aflukkede frihavnsområde. Men i fremtiden vil området blive fuld af liv, når beboere og besøgende indtager området sammen med en lang række erhverv og FN. Med udviklingen af Marmormolen bliver der samtidig skabt et sammenhængende omdannet havneområde for både cyklister og gående mellem Østerbro, Amerika Plads, Langelinie og den nye bydel i Nordhavn. Nu er tiden kommet hvor Borgerrepræsentationen skal tage stilling til en ny lokalplan for området. Det er planen, at Københavns Kommunes forslag til ny lokalplan, kommuneplantillæg og en miljøredegørelse skal sendes i offentlig høring til sommer. Dette notat skitserer en plan for, hvordan vi bedst sikre at borgerne og projektets øvrige interessenter bliver informeret om forslaget. Kommunikations-

  • Amaliekai, Amaliehaven and Amalienborg Slot
    Amaliekai, Amaliehaven and Amalienborg Slot A stroll from Nyhavn along Amaliekai towards the Royal Palaces and castles of Amalienborg provides an excellent view of Denmark’s Opera House which appears to float upon the water opposite Ameliehaven. If looking in the other di- rection, you’ll get a fantastic view of Danish ar- chitecture that includes the Marble church, Fre- deriksstaden - a district of the city renowned for the important rococo complexes, Amalienborg Palace Square, and harbour beyond. Amalie Garden, is one of the newest parks the city has, opening to the public in 1983. This pret- ty spot was once a busy shipyard and docklands with bustling warehouses and a quay door di- rectly accessing the Royal Family’s residence. The garden was designed by Jean Delogne, a landscape architect, and the four bronze co- lumns and central fountain were created by the Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro. The addition of this green space in the urban centre was welcomed by most and a part of the redevelopment of the entire Copenhagen port area from industrial use to residential and re- creational spaces. Amalienborg Slot serves as the home for the Danish Royal Family and is the Queen’s official winter residence. The castle complex is made up of four separate palaces, built around an octagonal square with classical palace faca- des and rococo interiors. Situated in the cen- tre of the square is an equestrian statue of King Frederik V. Originally built for four noble families, the Royal family purchased it and took up resi- dence after their Christiansborg Palace burnt down in 1794.
