My favourite and neighbourhood bookstore. With a good selection of books and a balanced selection of magazines. If possible I buy my books here. I want to support small business. 

The Bartolotti is perhaps one of the most beautiful Museum Houses Amsterdam has, built by someone who once was the richest man in the city, but it's a bit hidden in plain sight. These days, it is run by a group of lovely old ladies, who can't wait to offer you tea or juice. You can walk around the house like you live there. You have to ring the doorbell to get in.

Known for their ceramics and carefully thought-out details. Get ready to spend a small fortune.

Store without a home is a guerrilla gallery department store, make sure you check out “Leaf-it” I love these sticky leaves!

A lively hotspot in the heart of Amsterdam in emerald green tones.
