Check out the Flamingoes at Artisplein

This public plaza runs alongside the northern side of Amsterdam’s ARTIS Zoo and serves as Café Restaurant de Plantage’s terrace. There are seats and tables arranged on Artisplein from the morning till night and it is possible to order drinks and food from Café Restaurant Plantage while lounging on the plaza. As the flamingo and spoonbill enclosures are located next to the plaza, visitors to Artisplein can watch these birds while enjoying beer, coffee or other refreshments. The plaza also features a long racetrack-like fountain that spurts steam and water.
