Because another similar kerks in Netherlands is pretty cold inside in every season.

Yelp Review 2023 #94:…read more Located in the Red Light District is Amsterdam's oldest building with a long history that has nothing to do with prostitution whatsoever. Starting in the 1200's when this church was built for Catholics. It became a Protestant church in the 1500's when the Dutch were no longer fans of the Catholic Church and switched teams. It became as an archive center. Under the floors of this building is a graveyard. And now, it's an art center. The tickets are about €14 for adults and cheaper for children depending on their age, and students. It's open from 10am-6pm on Mondays to Saturdays, and 1pm-5pm on Sundays. Check their website for most current information. Outside the building you'll see bronze sculptures: a breastplate sculpture, and Belle the Sex Worker. Keep your eyes on the ground and around so you don't miss them.

There's lots to see and we spent quite a bit time here. The organ is massive and gorgeous and Mozart played on it at the age of 10! We recommend seeing this impressive expansive place.

Rotted bodies buried underneath large slabs of stone seeped up into the church, this is where the term "Stinking rich" comes from. Don't worry it doesn't smell any longer and added a wonderful touch after returning from other cities and places. We would come up and enjoy the rest of our evenings here peacefully while overlooking the church.

The Burcht of Leiden or Leidse Burcht is so amazing!! Its an old medieval castle (the info board…read moredates it to around 1150) and kudos to the city that it has been so remarkably persevered that you can still take a walk along the battlements!! Its also man-made hill, so be aware that its steep and there are a lots of stairs to climb to get to the top but once there, the view of Leiden and especially its church as well as other monuments is amazing. Also, for the unfamiliar tourist, its great that the city has been so thoughtful and that there are signposts along the battlement walls which point these monuments out. The fort itself is quite small and there are curving stairs that take you up to the battlements. Make sure you read the info-board about the well - fantastically hilarious and I also liked the quirky seats found in the interior courtyard, Reckon this is absolutely worth the visit! Go here when in Leiden, or even worth taking out of town visitors to this place, so they get to see more than just Amsterdam (and its a fairly quick 10-15 min walk from the Leiden central station)!
