- Dam Square - Known as the “City built on trees,” Amsterdam’s soil consists of a thick layer of fen and clay, leading to some buildings being constructed on wooden poles anchored in a sandy layer about 11 meters deep. Historically, Amsterdam’s houses were built on wooden foundation piles driven deep into the clay, peat, and water until reaching the first solid sand layer.
- Chinatown - This area is part of the Red Light District, specifically within the Old Town. As the oldest part of the city, it is rich in history.
- Int Aepjen - Known as Pub The Ape or Int Aepjen in Dutch, this establishment was built around 1540 and is one of only two remaining wooden buildings in Amsterdam. This is notable because a major fire in 1452 led the government to mandate brick facades for buildings.
- In de Waag - Originally one of Amsterdam’s city gates and part of the defensive wall, the Waag was constructed around the 1400s and is the city’s second oldest building. It later served as a guild hall, housing craftsman’s organizations within the Waag and around the square.
- The Smallest House in Amsterdam - Constructed in the 1700s, this tiny house initially served as a storage space for the VOC trading company. It later became a long-term residence.
- Condomerie - The Condomerie is the world’s first specialty condom shop, established in 1987. It offers custom-sized condoms and a variety of unique options.
