TIME OUT - AMSTERDAM - EDITION 9 2005
Amsterdam is "in a nutshell, one of the most consistently surprising, thrilling intriguing, bloody-minded, compelling cities on earth". It is a city for art lovers, shoppers and pleasure seekers of every type. Time Out Amsterdam is an essential guide to the high art and low culture of this city of contradictions.
Reliably highlighting the best of Amsterdam, The Time Out Guide also features the quirky, kitsch and outrageous of the city. You get the skinny on everything from tulips and windmills to coffee-houses and "wild pissing". It is obviously written by those in the know--there are excellent guides to neighbourhoods (don't miss the Jordaan) and the shopping section recommendations were clearly verified by a number of Dutch trendies.
The maps are easy to use and well positioned at the back of the book. As you would expect from the Time Out series, all budgets are catered for from students to those with the urge to splurge and the result is high value for money. Among the gems to be found in the guide is a one-stop clubbing shop "Housewives on Fire" and an elegant Art Deco sauna. The extensive hotel listings are particularly useful as rooms go very quickly in Amsterdam, especially on weekends.
Between its world-class art museums, its eminently wanderable canals and its coffeeshops that don't exactly specialise in coffee, its variety is glorious indeed. However, with one of Europe's more forward-thinking cultural scenes and striking new architectural developments in Ijburg and the Bijimermeer, there's much more here to enjoy than the cliches; written, researched and edited entirely by locals, Time Out Amsterdam will tell you all about it. Selected as best Amsterdam guidebook by The Sunday Times
