The Spiegelkwartier is the district between the Rijksmuseum and the Herengracht with the Spiegelstraat as its most important street. It's the number one art district in Amsterdam and a perfect place to shop for antiques and modern and classic art. Upscale shops line the streets, offering everything from sculpture and porcelain to high-quality furniture and other decorative goods. Many of the pieces are one-of-a-kind and make ideal mementos of time spent in the Netherlands. The Spiegelkwartier is known for the many art galleries there. When going into the galleries you sometimes feel as if in a museum. Dutch Masters from Karel Appel to Vermeer are there for you to see. After shopping at the Spiegelkwartier it's fun to go to Stach for wine and bites or to restaurant Red for a surf and turf with lobster and steak.
