Discoveries

In the Van Diemenstraat in Amsterdam you vind these huge murals of 16 century maps as a homage to the dutch explorers of those times. (All street names in that area are called after an explorer).
Not bad for a mural. I dedicate this one to monday murals here.

  13. Such lovely and unusual murals. It must be a well visited street to both see and photograph the artwork.
