This new urban districty is situated on specially constructed islands in IJmeer, a lake on the eastern side of Amsterdam. It is one of the largest new developments in the Amsterdam area, with a current population of 20,000. Many tourists who love the combination of fresh and inspiring architecture, water, water sports, beach, nature, good restaurants, hip shops and the summer parties of beach club Blijburg already discovered IJburg. And downtown Amsterdam is around the corner! On IJburg, and the areas around it, you will find parks, beaches, and swampy peat landscapes with many species of birds, flowers, rabbits, orchids, and nesting sites for grass snakes. There is also true wilderness with fallen trees, reed beds and tall grass. The banks of the IJmeer are never far away.
