Plantage

如何抵達

By tram

As walking to Plantage can take more than 20 minutes, most visitors would take the tram to get there. Tram 7 from Leidseplein heads northeast through the district via Alexanderplein. Tram stops Hoogte Kadijk and 1e Coehoornstraat are near the windmill De Gooyer. It also connects with the metro at Weesperplein metro station. Tram 14 from Amsterdam Centraal passes through the district with stops at Artis, Plantage Lepellaan and Alexanderplein. It also connects with the metro at Waterlooplein metro station.

By metro The metro is the fastest way to get into the district, but the locations of its stops are somewhat less convenient than the tram stops. Two stations serve the Plantage. Waterlooplein is the closest to the main sights, including the Artis Zoo, the various museums and the Hollandsche Schouwburg. Exiting the station at Hortusplantsoen, it's only a short walk to the area. Weesperplein is close to the University of Amsterdam and the Carré Theatre. Three metro lines from Centraal Station (lines 51, 53 and 54) stop at both stations.
