Magna Plaza shopping center in Amsterdam
Magna Plaza is a two-storey shopping center located in a wonderful building that used to be the headquarters of Amsterdam’s postal service. The building is very beautiful and impressive, and makes for amazing souvenir photos. Its main attractions are the fashion and shoe stores.
Women, in particular, love the shoe stores here and rarely pass by without picking up a pair. It is located near the Dam on the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal and can very well be accessed by any tourist there.
De Bijenkorf department store in Amsterdam
One of the features of Amsterdam’s famous Dam Square is this large and exclusive department store, which stocks leading brands such as Hermès and Louis Vuitton. It is reminiscent of Harrods in London and is very luxurious, selling products for men, women and children.
The cool thing is that there you can find areas from fashion to perfumes, as well as interior design to literature, for example. This is one of the largest department stores in the Netherlands and well worth a visit, even if it’s just for a browse.
De Kalvertoren shopping mall in Amsterdam
De Kalvertoren is a large, modern shopping center that occupies several authentic old buildings on the Kalverstraat. It has many fashion and shoe brands, as well as HEMA, the typically Dutch department store. So, a great mall for shopping in Amsterdam.
These are just a few of the many malls and department stores in Amsterdam. Often you’ll pass by one of them unnoticed, but you’ll come across a lot of people with bags, so that’s when you’ll ask if there are any closed shopping areas around. It’s well worth it and the fun is more than guaranteed.
