New Amsterdam Museum of Architecture Location: Nearly the westernmost part of the city Appearance: It's kind of a hidden gem, being squat and easily overlooked thanks to the skyscrapers that surround it. The only thing that draws the eye is its unusually shaped entrance Other Important Notes: The interior is a variety of interesting historical architecture exhibits, with instillations for many culturally significant (now destroyed) building interiors. Installments are connected with creative passageways, giving it a labyrinthian feel at times. It is NOWHERE NEAR as large as it seems — the museum makes use of VR/holographic projection technology to add depth and detail where there simply isn't room for it to actually exist. Be careful where you walk, if you trail off the designated walkways you will very likely run face first into a wall.
