Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam

Beautiful historic landmark housing a museum about the history of the Dutch in the tropics. It's a sensitive topic for the Dutch and former Dutch colonies, and this museum does well to delicately present the facts about the Dutch colonial history. Interesting interactive exhibits, such as the stories told at various decorated scenes and beautiful historical objects across the globe. There are some activities especially interesting for children, but this museum does well to also appeal to adults interested to delve into the culture of a country with a rich history.

Nice & great museum to see & learn about Indonesia when it was an East-Indies. The place is clean, tidy with great arrangement for the collections. All of the staffs I met, were very friendly & helpfull. Thanks a lot to all of you guys.

The building that looks similar to the Amsterdam Central train station. It has has some unique hidden architecture that shows historic Dutch colonialism. The museum itself has been slimmed down in recent years with the available content. It has less space for historic and cultural artifacts of the world and more spaces for temprally galleries and items. There is a restaurant with dishes from around the world. The price is a bit higher than what you can get in the area.

A nice museum to see some 'tropical-side' of the (used to be part of) Netherlands. Located near a calm, not so touristy park in the East side of Amsterdam. However, I feel that the collections are not quite extensive; if you are looking for more extensive stories regarding the colonialism, consider visit the Bronbeek Museum in Arnhem.

Great place in Amsterdam to see interesting cultures. There is a nice restaurant and it borders the Oosterpark which is also nice. There is also a very interesting Impact Hub for social minded businesses.
