Named after Dutch poet Joost van den Vondel, the city’s biggest and most beautiful park is a hub of activity no matter the weather, with miles of paths for walking, cycling and rollerblading. In summer, locals and tourists alike cool off on the grassy banks of the park’s ponds, with picnics that continue late into the evening.
