Just behind the beautiful avenues of Oud-Zuid lies De Pijp, a unique neighbourhood in Amsterdam where there is plenty to do. Lively yet intimate, bustling yet relaxed. This historic neighbourhood invites you to stroll around, taste and discover.
De Pijp, originally built for craftsmen and labors in the 19th century, has grown into one of the city's most diverse and distinctive neighbourhoods, shaped by generations of creative types, students and global cultures. Today, the neighbourhood is known for its cafés, independent boutiques and the unmistakable rhythm of everyday life in Amsterdam. And, of course, the Albert Cuijpmarkt, one of Amsterdam's largest daily markets.
