Vondelpark in Amsterdam, the most famous park of the city
Vondelpark is by far the most famous park in Amsterdam. Named after the Dutch writer Joost van den Vondel, the park opened in 1865 and has been declared a National Monument. It's the most visited park in the Dutch capital and is hugely popular with locals and tourists alike, attracting over nine million visitors per year.
It is conveniently located near popular areas like Leidseplein and Marnixplein, and the park also sprawls into residential districts. There is more to the park than simply beautiful walkways, lawns, plants and trees - there's also a tearoom called Blauwe Theehuis, a concert venue known as Orgelpark, a statue by Pablo Picasso and there are even farm animals that live on the southern end of the park!
