TRAVELS OF ADAM | Amsterdam City Hipster Guide – Know where to go: Jordaan

Originally founded as a working class area, today the Jordaan offers a walk through time. Seventeenth-century working class houses that are completely renovated, old brown pubs that are now trendy coffee bars (not to be confused with the good old Dutch Coffeeshop where you’ll find drugs) and trendy pubs where you can get a nice glass of champagne. The Jordaan is also the culinary hotspot (https://www.eatingeurope.com/amsterdam/) in Amsterdam with authentic international restaurants and even the odd food tour. From the Jordaan’s early days, it’s always been a place for artists, writers, innovators and bohemians: George Breitner, Rene Descartes, Johnny Jordaan, Gerard Reve, Rob Scholte are just a few examples of people that partly got their inspiration in the Jordaan.
