OSCAM - Open Space Contemporary Art Museum
Walk to the museum. Spend the next hour exploring the exhibitions on young subcultures. The free entry makes it easy to linger in the galleries.

Head to the large cafe under the hotel. During the day it is busy with office workers, but by late afternoon it shifts to a more local, relaxed vibe. Order a drink and find a seat.

Sit by the window or outside if the weather permits. Watch the sun set toward the SW. The golden light from 15:57 will have just passed, but the evening glow remains.
