When dusk falls in Amsterdam the city begins to buzz in a whole other light. The working class gathers at one of Amsterdam’s many squares and enjoys a few cocktails with friends and colleges before returning to their respective homes. The city’s subculture emerges slowly and surely. The restaurants fill up, the pubs and street cafes get crowded and the sounds of Dutch club music begin to heighten throughout the city.
Amsterdam has something for everyone- there is no shortage of great finds and if you do enough digging there are many speakeasy’s and private clubs to indulge in. I took Ben to visit some old haunts from the younger years. Some were still up and running, sadly others had been laid to rest. Here are some great night shots from our time out in Amsterdam.
