5 5 AMSTERDAM ART, CANALS, A ZEST FOR LIFE The Hapimag resort is on Amsterdam s oldest canal, the Singel. It is just a few minutes walk to the shops and the main train station. The Singel canal is in the centre of Amsterdam. The main train station is just around the corner. From here you can take the train, bus or metro to any destination in and around Amsterdam. In just 10 minutes, you can walk to the artists quarter of Jordaan, the famous Dam Square and the main and smaller shopping streets. The museum quarter is just 15 minutes away by tram and here you can find world-famous museums such as the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum. In Holland, various excursion destinations are just a short distance away by train or car: marvel at the windmills in Zaandam, go on a shopping tour to Haarlem or eat fish in Volendam, a typical Dutch fishing village. A prime location The Hapimag Resort is in a prime location near the artists quarter and the shopping streets. It is also close to public transport.
6 6 History HISTORY AND CULTURE The first documented mention of a town with the name Amstelledammel was in A village which was built on a dam in the Amstel. The city has always had a varied history. The name of the city is derived from a dam with locks built on the river Amstel in the 13th century. This connected the two settlements Oude Zijde and Nieuwe Zijde (old and new side), which still retain these names today. In the Middle Ages, a city square, which still carries the name Dam today, was built on the Amstel Dam and this became the centre of the city. Amsterdam became a centre for world trade early on, which is why the city was fought over again and again. The city survived the First World War with relatively little damage. In 1928, Amsterdam held the Olympic Games. However, the city suffered a set back during the Second World War. Occupied by the Germans, Amsterdam experienced dark times, which are still remembered today in many museums. After the war, the city slowly became the cosmopolitan, lively and multi-cultural metropolis that we know today. Today the Hapimag resort is a protected building. The following words are still displayed high on the façade: Vita Hominum Similis Naviganti (the life of a person is like that of a sailor). Each of the 26 apartments is dedicated to a Dutch painter. The current Hapimag Resort was the warehouse of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) until the end of the 19th century. Goods from India were stored here. In 1905 the house was converted into student accommodation. In 1988 Hapimag purchased the building. The colours of the house are identical to those used in the 17th century.

10 10 Activities ACROSS THE CANALS ON TWO WHEELS The bike in Amsterdam is like the Vespa in Rome the most important form of transport for the locals. Do the same and discover the city on two wheels. The Dutch have a long tradition of love for the bicycle. Even Queen Wilhelmina ( ) used this common means of transport. There are 400 kilometres of cycle paths in and around Amsterdam. This makes it quick and easy to get from one attraction to the next. You can hire bikes from us at the resort. Child seats and helmets are also available.

11 Activities 11 ON WATER OR IN NATURE A canal trip gives you an overview of Amsterdam and in the park you can forget that you are in a city wonderful contrasts. The history of Amsterdam is built on water. 165 canals have been built over the centuries, which simplified transport and thus boosted trade. They still define the cityscape and have been a UNESCO World Heritage site since A trip along Amsterdam s canals is probably the best way to get to know the city. Whether a hop-on/hop-off tour, a traditional round trip or a paddle boat this is the perfect way to get your first impression of the different canals. Between trips, choose one of over 30 parks for a wonderful place to relax. Sitting on the grass in the middle of the city, the loud activity of the city seems a long way away. The Keukenhof is the largest garden in the world. It is near the town of Lisse in the south of Holland. It is particularly worthwhile visiting during the tulip season. The best parks Vondelpark Westerpark Sarphatipark Park Frankendael Oosterpark

17 Indulgence 17 STAMPPOT AND POFFERTJES Try out Dutch cooking! But specialities from around the world are also available in the multicultural city of Amsterdam. Dutch cooking is simple and hearty. Meat and potatoes are common ingredients. The most popular dishes include Erwtensoep (pea soup with ham and smoked sausage), Stamppot (mashed potato with vegetables served with meat and sauce) and Poffertjes (small sweet pancakes). In many restaurants, dishes are still cooked in a traditional manner. Thanks to Amsterdam s proximity to the sea, fresh fish such as plaice, mackerel, eel as well as mussels and prawns are also often on the menu. Try a different snack: So many visitors to Amsterdam have already stood in wonder before the Febo snack bar. Insert a coin, open the glass door and bite into a fresh, warm snack. It s worth a try! The colonial past of the Netherlands is reflected in the numerous Indonesian and Surinamese restaurants in Amsterdam. This is also demonstrated by the many nationalities at home here with a huge selection of international restaurants.
