Flevopark

You have just entered the Flevopark. Large groups of contributors within the Jewish Community first idealized the park as a large Jewish Cemetery in 1908 and were led by Jac P. Thijsse, a well-known naturalist. Construction on the site began in 1928 and was opened for the first time in 1931.
Later, in 1956, Amsterdam purchased the park from the Jewish community and it was opened to the public. Felvopark is now a large, green park with great places to jog, hang out and relax. If you like picnicking, come on a sunny day and have save a spot near one of the beautiful lakes. When you’re finished, you can enjoy the large outdoor swimming pool, with a smaller shallow pool for the kids.
The trees around this park are calming as the breeze slowly moves through them during the spring and autumn seasons, making this park a great pace to take a quiet vacation away from loud beaches and busy cities. Often cited as one of the best places to swim in Eastern Amsterdam, Flevopark is a beautiful addition to the ‘Greenest City in Europe’.
