Museum Quarter
U
NTIL THE LATE 19TH CENTURY,
the Museum Quarter lay outside the city
limits, a region of small farms and market gardens. Then the city council
designated it an area of art and culture, and plans were conceived for the
first of Amsterdam's celebrated cultural institutions. With its great museums
of art, an internationally renowned concert hall, the city's largest park and a
clutch of exclusive shopping streets, the Museum Quarter is today one of
Amsterdam's most impressive areas.
