Old quaint street with cute Dutch houses. You don't feel you're in Amsterdam anymore. Cafe 't Sluisje is the midway point on the street where you can get a nice apple pie and coffee while watching boats going through the lock.

Parks & Nature
Twiske
A gorgeous nature reserve for a chill day outside Amsterdam.
Biking along the Vecht river
Nice bike trip to do in aday, rent your bikes, get them on the train (6 euro for aday pass for the bike in addition to your train ticket) toAbcoude, get off, and bike along the river Vecht, goingdown southeast towards Utrecht. You’ll see old mansions, castles, lovely countryside and villages all in one. The journey probably takes 5 hours if you bike leisurely. Have dinner in Utrecht, and return to Amsterdam (30mins on the train) http://goo.gl/lUPVgQ
