Former headquarter of Royal Dutch Shell, the multinational oil company till 2009. Therefore most inhabitants still call it ‘Shell Tower’. But from 2014 till 2016 it is changed to a few new hotspots in Amsterdam with a collection of restaurants, cafes, hotels, and offices but above all (literally): an observation deck on the top floor with a MASSIVE view of Amsterdam. Amsterdam LOOKOUT
A lift takes you surprisingly quickly to the top floor of the building and there such a nice view awaits you!
Done? Time left? The building next to the tower is called ‘This is Holland’. Here you can take a 5-dimensional flight above the Netherlands. Very entertaining. Been here twice with my daughter.
