Experience Amsterdamâs most talked about neighborhood, the Red Light district, and listen to fascinating stories, with an immersive audio tour on your phone.Â
Your walking tour begins at Dam Square, where you’ll find out how a simple dam on the Amstel River gave the city its name and witnessed the glorious moments of Dutch history. Then, you will continue your stroll to admire the oldest building in Amsterdam, the famed Oude Kerk. Just outside the historic 14th-century church, youâll discover the small statue of âBelleâ. She asks all passersby to ârespect sex workers all over the worldâ. After all, the neighborhood became famous due to its housing of the worldâs oldest profession.
Throughout your walk, you will follow in the footsteps of erstwhile sailors, sex workers, merchants & modern curious visitors. You will experience unique attractions, such as the CafĂŠ Inât Aepjen, the âsecretâ chapel of Onsâ Lieve Heer op Solder and Bloedstraat. Eventually, you will end your walk at Nieuwmarkt, Amsterdamâs busy market square. There, you will experience the Waag building, the city’s most famous guild-house!
