Palace on the Dam

Palace on the Dam

The palace on the Dam is located in the middle of the capital of the Netherlands.

This palace is the official reception palace of the Dutch King Willem-Alexander and plays a major role during state visits and other official events organized by the royal family. In the past, the building has served as city hall and while it is not Amsterdam's city hall anymore, the Palace on the Dam is now open to visitors year-round. It is one of the largest and most prestigious buildings from the 17th century and this is still clearly visible on the inside of the building and the marble galleries. These galleries are filled with sculptures and art pieces that tell their version of Amsterdam's rich history.

Lelystad Airport

Fly with us over historic defence bastions such as Naarden Vesting, Muiderslot and Pampus. Enjoy wonderful views of the canal network and the historic city centre of Amsterdam. Combined with Amsterdam Central station, where old meets new, the IJ river with its superb modern architecture and Amsterdam Noord which is currently undergoing development. We then fly on to the rugged countryside of the Oostvaardersplassen lakes and Lelystad, where we also circle above the Batavia VOC ship, a fantastic reconstruction of this piece of iconic Dutch history. The airspace above the city of Amsterdam is controlled by Schiphol Air Traffic Control. The result may be that air traffic control adjusts our route and that Amsterdam is at a greater distance than initially expected.
