Thomas MeijerSeptember 26, 2014Tourists of Amsterdam! Here's where you can take your photos of the 'I amsterdam'. Also, there's a hidden Albert Heijn at the back, across the Stedelijk Museum! Buy some wine and lay down in the grass
Have a seat in the middle of this open park and enjoy the scenery. Walk towards the Rijksmuseum and enjoy the beautiful garden. Have a sandwich near the pool and don´t forget to make lots of pictures!Upvoted 4 weeks ago
Rasha F EGY ⛳️May 2, 2014I loved Amsterdam specially here - cannot describe but it is the place to spend money & travel to :) to take full photo needs some of training but it is 1 of the best photos u ll keep - Enjoy
Milana GerasimovaApril 30, 2016Very touristic place yet it's peaceful. World-class museums a few meters away from each other! Buy a museumkaart and enjoy hopping between them all day long. A pub, gifts shop and Albert hijn are near
Daisarie DelaySeptember 10, 2016Great spot to hangout on a sunny day and take photos, do cartwheels, have a picnic,visit museums. van Gogh and Banksy exhibits are nearby. One of my favorite locations in Amsterdam! 👌🏽🙂
Syeira LaksamanaSeptember 11, 2018A really great public space in the Museumkwartier neighbourhood of the Amsterdam-Zuid borough in Amsterdam.Located at the Museumplein are 3 museums : the Rijksmuseum,Van Gogh Museum & Stedelijk Museum
Thais QuintanaOctober 21, 2022Beautiful place but we don't see the “I am Amsterdam” anymore in this place. Still is a great place to visit and has the best museums around, especially the Van Gogh museum. Worth the visit 😀- DHR.comJanuary 17, 2012This square is where you will experience wonderful works of art and remarkable events. Known as the Museum Square, this is home to the world-class museums such as Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum.
EdwulfJanuary 23, 2017On the south corner there is a supermarket. Grab some cheese, smoked sausages and wine, there a quick meal while you enjoy a blue sky and rest your feet
Juanxito GómezAugust 7, 2018If you want to make a photo with no people in 'I AMSTERDAM', forget about, because the place is always crowded. Despite that, it's a good place to relax and take a walk.
Will BelfordSeptember 15, 2014Best plaza in Amsterdam. Around here, you'll find all the essentials, such as the Rijkmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, Leidseplein and Vondelpark.
Schmidt RobertNovember 18, 2013To get an around feeling of amsterdam you just have to visit museumplein. And while you are there just sit at one of the cafés nearby and have a coffee + a hot waffle. Hmmm heavenly delicious
FoodieSeptember 20, 2014Having spent the day bouncing from the masterpieces of Rembrandt and Vermeer in the Rijksmuseum to the sunflowers of Van Gogh, get yourself a rest by grabbing a Belgian waffle with Nutella and latte👌
It can get really busy around the Iamsterdam sign but if you go early enough in the morning you can be in luck and get a photo without too many random tourists standing in your photo.- FoodieSeptember 20, 2014Try the Belgian waffles with Nutella sold right on the street at the Museumplein 😍 These are the best waffles ever 👌 absolutely divine and still make me crave for them😋 The warmest memory 🙏
- Naomi BruwerDecember 25, 2014Such an amazing plein! Love the food stalls around here. You'll find an Iamsterdam sign on display here.
Nikolas TapiaApril 27, 2016One of the main squares in Amsterdam. You can find here the famous "Iamsterdam" sign. There are lots of tourists taking photos so be patient
Ashley HoweSeptember 3, 2015Come early in the morning (7.30-8.30am) to have your picture taken at the Iamsterdam sign when there's nobody around.- pieter vNovember 2, 2015Wonderful atmosphere, nice pond and great autumn leaves everywhere. Careful with the bicycle highway in the middle of the square
Emily BasileAugust 28, 2016Nice central location for several big museums and the tourist-friendly I Amsterdam sign. Most museums have free WiFi.
Amit GaharwarApril 2, 2016All the museums at one place with beautiful gardens. I Amsterdam sign on display as well.
Carl GriffinDecember 5, 2015Nice open space surrounded by beautiful architecture. Great place for people watching.
Jose LopezFebruary 9, 2015One of the most iconic places of Amsterdam!! More than 3 museums in the area, plus the famous "I'm Amsterdam"
Shaun WestonSeptember 30, 2015An open space that sometimes looks like a sunny meadow full of daisies, and sometimes like a shanty town full of criminals. Best of luck.
B. Aaron TalbotSeptember 3, 2017touristy, mostly towards the Amsterdam sign, but a lovely place to sit in the grass and sun and enjoy the day...
Jake SmithJuly 7, 2015You can buy advanced tickets to the Heineken Experience (just a few blocks away) at one of the museum store kiosks right in this square.
Duncan HowsleyApril 13, 2016A great place to relax with a deli lunch from Renzo's Deli between museum visits.

Jerry Kong A SamAugust 24, 2014A beautiful square with a view of Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh museum, Stedelijk Museum and Concertgebouw.
George LouloudisNovember 16, 2014The place to chill, have a snack or coffee and take a "must" tourist picture of yourself on the Amsterdam letters
Aline BrandãoOctober 25, 2015A nice place to sit and eat a hot dog after spending the morning inside the several museums that surround it.
Adam NowekNovember 17, 2015Spectacular square surrounded by some world-class museums. Forget that silly I amsterdam sign, though.
Dazia PinedaSeptember 19, 2016Walking to the Iamsterdam thing or the Van Gogh museum and other museums.
Cynthia DrescherApril 4, 2013The Rijksmuseum line is probably ridiculously long, so this is where you can take the touristy snapshots you need for your Facebook bragging.- Maria Giovanna SarriFebruary 21, 2019Lovely square/park where to chill, have a drink and experience Amsterdam!
- Gonzo CircusMay 13, 2015Looking for a concert tonight? Bryan Eubanks (US) will perform his composition 'Objekt I' at nearby momumental marble hall of Tetterode https://www.facebook.com/events/368598926677553/
Even if it's raining, take a look around one of the nicest parts of Amsterdam
It's not a square of museums. I measured each side. There are more than 4 sides! I went mad and ate a potato instead.
