by micas_pt After visiting Sint Nikolaaskerk you should head for Damrak, one the main shopping streets in Amsterdam. This street stands between Centraal Station and Dam Square. This is a bustling street, where you will find lots of shopping options as well as fast food restaurants. There are also some must see sites, such as Beurs von Berlage and Sex Museum. Leave a Comment

The Damrak is a wide avenue at the centre of Amsterdam, between Amsterdam Centraal railway station and Dam Square, running north-south. There are a lot of tram lines an one metro line running down it. Because of the former stock exchange building, the monumental Beurs van Berlage (now used for other purposes), and several other buildings related to financial activities erected there in the early 20th century, the term "Damrak" has come to be a synonym for the Amsterdam Stock Exchange in the same way "Wall Street" is synonymous with the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ. The street was located on a rak (reach), a straight part of the Amstel river near a dam; hence the name. Damrak es una avenida ancha en el centro de Ámsterdam, entre la estación de tren Amsterdam Centraal y la plaza Dam, llendo de Norte a Sur. Hay muchas líneas de tranvía y una de metro por debajo. El término "Damrak" se ha convertido en sinónimo de la Bolsa de Ámsterdam gracias al edificio de la antigua bolsa que se encontraba aquí, en el monumental Beurs van Berlage (ahora con otros usos), así también como por otros edificios relacionados con actividades financieras, tal como ocurre con "Wall Street" como sinónimo de la Bolsa de Nueva York y el NASDAQ. La calle se encontraba sobre un "rak" (parte recta del río Amstel) cerca de una presa o "dam", así que de ahí le viene el nombre. Leave a Comment

 Amsterdam Damrak by Airpunk Damrak is a street full of restaurants, hotels and souvenir shops. If you are looking for souvernirs or just want to look around, Damrak is really fine. Anyway, most restaurants are quite expensive. Leave a Comment

 Amsterdam by SnoopySue I forgot the name of the main street in Amsterdam connecting railway station and Dam Square. Lot of restaurants, shops and other spots. Sex Museum on the right side of the street just a few steps from the station. Leave a Comment

by Sarah97 Simply walk around the central station area. You can see the small shops with interesting souveniers and stuffs. Also there is one lane of the street where all the sex shops are. We won't brave enough to go there by night so we had a taste of it while it is bright. =) Leave a Comment

 Amsterdam VT meeting 2001 by catnl Amsterdam is a life, lots of people in da streets day or night. Crowded yes, but interesting and some times real fun just walking. This picture was taken during a VT meeting in 2001. Leave a Comment

Mostly a good laugh and the history of porn and perversions rather than sex on display! Leave a Comment

by titabell Damrak is the connecting road between the Dam and the Central Station. Here, you will find a lot of souvenir shops, hotels and restaurants. You will also find the two famous buildings in the city namely the Beurs van Belage and the famous mall, the Bijenkorf. Damrak can be very overwhelming for the first timer in the city because it is one of the bussiest streets in Amsterdam, but it just gets better once you arrive at the center square which is called the DAM.
