Most phone repairs take 20 to 60 minutes. You can wait in the shop – or use the time to see one of the oldest and most interesting parts of Amsterdam. Everything below is within a few minutes' walk. No phone needed: we tell you the way at the counter.
1. De Waag on the Nieuwmarkt
The big medieval building in the middle of the square was once a city gate, later a weighing house. Today the square around it is lined with cafés and terraces – an easy place to sit down with a coffee while you wait.
2. The Zeedijk and Chinatown
One of Amsterdam's oldest streets runs from the Nieuwmarkt towards Centraal Station. It is the heart of the city's small Chinatown, with Asian restaurants and bakeries, and the Buddhist He Hua Temple.
3. Montelbaanstoren
A short walk from our shop, this old defensive tower on the Oudeschans canal is one of the most photographed spots in the city – especially from the bridge, with the houseboats in front.
4. Schreierstoren
A round tower from the old city wall, on the water near Centraal Station. Sailors left from here on long voyages, including the ship of Henry Hudson in 1609.
5. The Oude Kerk
Amsterdam's oldest building stands, surprisingly, in the middle of the Red Light District. Even from the outside, the church and the small square around it are worth the walk.
6. The Rembrandt House
The house where Rembrandt lived and worked is a short walk south of the Nieuwmarkt. If your repair takes longer, it is an easy museum visit nearby.
7. Waterlooplein
Just past the Rembrandt House is the Waterlooplein, known for its outdoor flea market with vintage clothes, records and souvenirs (not on Sundays).
