Timeline
16:11
Grab an ice cream from DaVinci to enjoy while walking.
16:26
Walk to De Boelelaan to see Lady Solid. The statue stands in a striking pose with arms and feet spread. The water feature makes it look like the lady has an incontinence problem, though it was likely intended to promote the importance of well-functioning waterways. It is visible from the public area.
16:56
Stay for the sunset. The sun sets toward the SW, casting a final glow on the water and the statue.
17:16
Head to Dosa for dinner. They specialise in traditional Southern Indian cuisine, especially the eponymous 'Dosa' (a rice and lentil pancake with a variety of fillings). The food is outstanding and well worth hunting out.
17:56
Finish the evening at Parck. This vegan-friendly cafe and pub offers plant-based food. You can play table tennis or 'ping pong' in the 'Ping Pong Bar' area.
Local tip
The walk from the ice cream shop to the statue is short, but the area around Lady Solid is open. Dosa and Parck are located near Vondelpark, so plan your walk from the statue toward the park area after sunset.
