The Plantage

The Plantage The Plantage area lies to the east of the city centre. The concentric canals abruptly ended here as the city’s population stopped increasing after 1680. An extensive park was established here in which the locals could enjoy long walks. The area also became the location of the Hortus Botanicus and Artis Zoo. Unfortunately, the Plantage deteriorated into an area full of gambling dens and prostitution. Midway through the 19th century the area was cleaned up by the city council, now it is a stylish and classy district!
