The ferry is entirely free and sails once an hour.<\/p>\n<p>The NDSM district is <strong>a shipyard with many empty buildings<\/strong>. Over time, this place has become a cultural masterpiece for the city of Amsterdam, with many amazing graffiti that make it a place you should visit.<\/p>\n<p>Some artists still live in these buildings or in abandoned streetcars.<\/p>\n<p>There are several famous artists who have carried out different projects here. One of them is Edward Boer with his famous container street art.
