"Free ferries on the IJ River side of Central Station, as well as buses and a new Noord-Zuid metro line, connect Noord to central Amsterdam. An abandoned submarine welcomes you to NDSM Wharf, an old shipyard-turned-edgy arts community. In this bohemian landscape, industrial castoffs have been repurposed into posh accommodations at the Crane Hotel Faralda, while old shipping containers have morphed into a holistic-inspired restaurant at Pllek. On the second weekend of most months, maritime history combines with the neighborhood’s creative spirit at IJ-Hallen, Europe’s largest flea market.The IJ waterfront also has the futuristic EYE Filmmuseum, an homage to international cinema topped with a restaurant with views of boats plying the IJ River, as well as central Amsterdam across the water. The adjacent Tolhuistuin, housed in a former canteen for Shell employees, hosts an eclectic program of dance, film, music, and other cultural events.Dominating the skyline, A’DAM Toren houses two upscale restaurants, a grunge-chic nightclub, and a sky-high swing, all with dizzying city views. Further inland, Noord’s progressive culture is evident at De Ceuvel, a clean-tech playground with a hip cafe. Just beyond, traditional Dutch farmhouses in pastoral villages are a throwback to the past." - MATADOR_NETWORK
