About

Situated in the heart of Amsterdam lies a hidden gem - Nemo Roof Top Terrace, the highest city square in the Netherlands. This lovely spot remains a well-kept secret, often overlooked by many. Situated on the top of the Nemo Science Museum, this rooftop provides breathtaking panoramic views of Amsterdam. Here, visitors can explore the open-air exhibition Energetica, enjoy drinks and food at the local restaurant, or simply unwind and relax. 

The building itself is hard to miss as it is in striking green colour and shaped like a ship’s hull. If you are passing by the city center it will definitely catch your eye.
