//places of interest420 Cafe, located just off the Dam-rak on the Oudebrugsteeg, is one of the busier coffee shops in Am-sterdam. Friendly service, good prices and a fantastic atmosphere make this one of the prime coffee shops to visit in the city.

Artis Zoo is more commonly known to tourists as Amsterdam Zoo. Located outwith the city centre, taking the 9 or 14 tram from the Damrak can get you straight to the Zoo within ten minutes. Plenty of animals to see and activities to do.

The infamous Red Light District is known across the globe for being home to hundreds of hookers, all fully legal and seriously eye open-ing. Though we do not recommend you use the services available, it is definitely worth having a wander.
