Vondel Park is Amsterdam's most popular and largest park. It is named after Joost van den Vondel the city's most famous poet. The park originally opened in 1865 and it has sunk nearly 10 feet. The park is under constant renovation in order to keep parts from sinking.
Of note, in 1976 many wild parakeets (My favorite type of bird) were mistakenly released and still reside in the park.
On sunny days, the park gets very busy with locals picnicking, flying kites, playing drums, smoking dope, or laying around on blankets. It's a beautiful park and definitely worth visiting just to see how the locals spend a weekend.
