This vast square with lots of greenery is located directly behind the Rijksmuseum. You can lie here in the grass and enjoy the beautiful buildings and museums in the neighborhood. The Museumplein exists in its current architectural form since 1999. In a distant past, the World Exhibition of 1883 was held here and in the winter the site was used as an ice rink. Around the Museumplein you’ll find several museums including the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and Stedelijk Museum.
