Hello there! This is @fernwehninja, and I am an adventurous individual who enjoys exploring new places outside of my comfort zone. Thank you for visiting my page! I will share my thoughts and experiences on various activities, providing you with sincere and honest reviews.

 

Unveiling a Whimsical World of Contrasts

The Upside Down, Amsterdam

 

Indeed, we are proudly reporting our ageless inner child in the world of art, fantastic contrast, and somewhat magical encounters in pursuit of discovering ourselves.

Invited a friend of mine who adores exploring the other side of Amsterdam, away from the architectural aspect of the city, canals, cafes, and Red Light District hmmm I must say not the ordinary, but something fun-loving, photo-worthy, and obviously to show-off and share our moments we took at The Upside Down Amsterdam.

 

How to get there from Amsterdam Central Station

 

The Upside Down Amsterdam can be found at Europaboulevard 5, 1079PC in Amsterdam. Getting there is a breeze once you know which mode of transportation is most suitable for you.

  • Metro

 
Take a 7-minute ride on the M52 Metro towards Station Zuid stop at Europaplein and then walk for 2 minutes. The location is easily accessible through Google Maps and is located right in front of the crossing when you go out of the metro.

 

  • Car

 
Considering the limited availability of parking spaces in the city center, it could take up to 17 minutes to reach the location. Therefore, I do not strongly recommend it, plus the expensive parking costs.

 

Opening Hours

 

  • Daily: 9.30 am to 21.00

It's important to note that booking online can save you 3 euros. We didn't know this and ended up paying 27 euros when we purchased our ticket at the kiosk.

The Upside Down Cafe

Upon entering, the friendly staff will welcome you and provide a brief overview of the regulations. Once your ticket is scanned, you can securely store your belongings in a locker.

We went there at around 2 in the afternoon, it was not crowded, but we were so hungry, 😂 so we had some snacks and smoothies at their cozy cafe first.

1000025860.jpg

Ordered their FREAKIN' Smoothie. I'm impressed by the presentation, but not impressed by their sugar content, it is just too much for me 🤣🤣

The waffle is really sooo gooood!


 

 

The Experience

 

Before visiting a place, I usually check their website for more information. I look at photos and reviews to see if it's worth spending. While browsing online blogs, I discovered that Upside Down Amsterdam changes its theme yearly according to the season. I find this concept brilliant because it offers something new and exciting to look forward to on every visit. Furthermore, a big possibility is that I will highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in photography, loves to have fun, or desires unique content.

the entrance way

 
Our first encounter is the smiley wall gateway. Wouldn't it be awesome to start your Upside-down journey with a smile? WOOOOT!! WHY NOT?! 😁♥️
 

1000023233.jpg

Well, inside the smiley wall gateway, there is a dark bridge illuminated with purple lights to enter the other spots. I was standing on that bridge and I had this dizzy feeling because the background seemed like rotating upside down. I went out as I was not very comfortable with the movements.

Private Jet Getaway

 

Just right next to the smiley gateway, is the Upside Down Private Jet Theme which is one of my favorites!! It is simple inside but hey you can strike a pose with sophistication and enjoy feeling the ride in a luxury setup! 😁👏💃

1000025859.jpg

Feels like staying in a Barbie jet! What a heavy pink exterior😂

 

1000025858.jpg

Cheers to more success and progress! Oh heyyy!! I'm flying!!! 😁

1000025786.jpg

There are camera timers available in every room. You just need the QR Code from your ticket and scan that for unlimited captures.

In this area, one can dress up as a stewardess and they offer costumes to wear. Additionally, there are some suitcases available for use.😄😁

Fun at the Ball Pit

 

We are young at heart but psychologically mature. Finding people who share similar interests is a great way to add laughter and enjoyment to our lives. I find it incredibly attractive! 😊

 

   
Happy kid inside❤️
 
   
When they say, unplanned trips are the best! And what's even better is the memories and long-lasting friendships you build along the way.😊♥️

Grateful to have a real friend ❤️

 

As you walk past the brightly lit luxe walls, you'll notice various quotes about life, happiness, and inspiration. Take a moment to read them and see which one resonates with you!

Girl, that message hits hard!

 

This message truly captures the essence of life and all the emotions that come with it, making it a genuine representation of our present experiences. It's like a window into our souls, reflecting our hopes, fears, and everything in between.

Remember the times you had trauma, stress, pressure, and intense depression? You have to take care of the good side of you and be strong! Never let anyone destroy your peace! `~story of my life 💪

 

1000028875.jpg

It's okay to take a pause, reflect and explore somewhere, and discover who you really are and what you really desire in life

The Netherland's Pride: The Bike Ride

 

Given its reputation as the world's cycling capital, Amsterdam is widely famous for its bike traffic jams. No doubt the Upsidedown, featured this as one of their photo-worthy themes.

1000025802.jpg

The universal language of joy is S-M-I-L-E! Pass it on! 💛

1000023539.jpg

 
I had to show some shots I made at Amsterdam's city's core, proudly reporting its artistic landscape, and showcasing its strong connection with cycling. How could one resist capturing its beauty in art?!

Barbie Wonderland

 

Come and choose your fashion! Tons of fun and cool clothes are ready for you from head to toe. What's your style? 👚👒👟


 

Message Swings

 

What are your thoughts? Mood for the day? Something to Celebrate? Well, I find it striking how you can customize and share it in the message swings. Write on!



 

 

With the term #Upsidedown where we expect to capture the opposite structure, although some areas are intended for this style of photography, not many are. Here are the snaps and bloopers taken from their cameras, which show how difficult it is to strike a post in a variety of settings.

It can be challenging to know how to position oneself and it takes a couple of repetitions to make a perfect picture.

Do I recommend it? Yes, if you enjoy taking beautiful portrait photographs with different themes for each season. It's best suited for teenagers, social media influencers, bloggers, vloggers, and those with a passion for art. Just wanted to mention that the tickets are a bit pricey for me, but if you're up for checking out other cool areas, then go for it! You should definitely give it a try and have some fun.❤️🙃
