    Hiking

    An artificial island standing on 132 tulip-shaped pillars. Many paths and a number of trees invite you to stroll and linger, and various artists often perform in the amphitheater. Admission is free. If too many visitors want to come to the island, numbers are given out to reduce the rush. Since the island protrudes quite far into the water and is up to 20m high, it offers wonderful views of the city.

    The island is definitely worth a visit, even if it is busy. But the building next door is worth it too - lots of tasty food options and a rooftop terrace with great views of Little Island and fewer people. When the weather is nice, it's best to take something with you in the market hall and then eat upstairs :-)
