Day1
Gemeentearchief
(Local free to enter local Museum)
Check out their underground vault!

The Gemeentearchief building in Amsterdam, originally a bank headquarters, features a basement bank vault known as the "Kluis" that once held valuable assets. This vault has been repurposed to safeguard historical records and artifacts significant to the city of Amsterdam, serving as a secure storage space for its rich historical heritage.

Thanks to the front of house staff for directing us to checkout this cool hidden gem in the building!

KattenKabinet (Cat Cabinet)
Off-the beaten track attraction 10Euros/entry

An off the beaten track attraction that features a private collection of Art works and collectible with plenty of free roaming cats as they proclaim. Its probably due to the colder days that only one was spotted during our visit.

Interesting, quirky two story access building. A pseudo alternative art museum with pseudo cat cafe concept. It would have been more value if there were more cats around but its probably due to the season. The cats are free roaming so, see your luck.

Frens Haringhandel

De Krijtberg, also known as the Church of St. Francis Xavier features stunning neo-Gothic architecture. The stained glass interior is particularly stunning and loved by worshipers and tourist alike. You might be interested the Sagrada Família by (Gaudi) for some of the most stunning stained glass works which paints the interior beautifully.

€23 entry for adults is a little pricey but this one of a kind exhibition, according to wiki, Body Worlds exhibitions have received more than 50 million visitors, making them the world's most popular touring attraction. Each piece may take months to even years to fully assemble together.

*Highlighting medical aids in bone/hip replacements/reinforcements*

Body World works are akin more for medical education and a very revealing look into the beauty of the human form.

Six floors with each floor featuring about two large pieces for display. The signage are very educational. More of a health and science perspective and a very revealing look at everyday life through a different lens.
