包包和箱包博物馆

一开始听这个名字我以为是展览一些无聊的手提箱之类的，都不太想去。在网上查地址时，发现这个博物馆坐落在阿姆斯特丹最古老的运河之一，小巧漂亮，却非常独特：它是欧洲唯一的皮包主題博物館，并且拥有最大数量的包包收藏品。我和闺蜜都是对包包充满热爱的菇凉，看着之前它们曾经举办的“芭比和她的包包们”，50只精致可爱的芭比娃娃和她们手上漂亮的包包陈列在展览柜里，马上就心动了，决定先去那里看看。博物馆还是很好找的，从市中心坐车到阿姆斯特丹著名的伦勃朗广场，再走上五六分钟就到了。听说这栋楼以前是给市长修来住的，进门一看果然是非常的金碧辉煌，很奢侈的感觉。听讲解员说，这里也经常有很多名流人士举办鸡尾酒派对，或者婚礼什么的。这种皇室风格的装潢还蛮适合的，我和闺蜜一直花痴地看着来往出入穿着西服的荷兰帅哥们。咳咳，然而这当然不是我们奔向这里的目的啦！当我们走进展览大厅，看到那些精美设计的包包，一时间都眼睛放光，恨不得把它们都买下来带回家！可惜这些包包都是独一无二的珍品，不会出售。但光来看一看，也觉得知足了。除了广大姐妹都喜欢的爱马仕，香奈儿，LV经典设计款以外，展馆还有好多别出心裁，被名人如天后麦当娜、前菲律宾总统夫人伊美黛、影星伊丽莎白泰勒、美国前第一夫人希拉芯、故荷兰女王朱丽安娜等背过的漂亮包包。平日里，我跟闺蜜只知道买包包，却并不了解包包的制作流程，历史等。在展览厅里，你可以了解皮包時尚的演变、各种制包技术及各类材质的运用。听讲解员说这里不时还会推出短期主题展览，如英国设计师VivienneWestwood设计包展等，可惜我们来的不凑巧。逛完了后肚子很饿，我跟闺蜜就跑到博物馆自营的茶餐厅（需要预约哦）喝下午茶。它家下午茶点心的别出心裁，简直是给我们的意外惊喜：有香奈儿经典款包包还有高跟鞋形状的点心！（忘了拍照，只有拿点官网的图了）超级小巧可爱，都不忍心吃掉～茶室本身的装修也透着一股贵族风，让人感觉自己就身处在皇室，体验公主一样的尊贵招待。

我们是今年1月份去的,CultureVulture网站上说得没错,有几个城市有包包/钱包的博物馆呢?他们有希拉里克林顿的Judith Leiber黑白"短袜"奢华包包,也有15世纪用山羊皮制作的男包,这也是最贵的。博物馆的位置很不错,一共三层,设计得很漂亮,非常适合博物馆爱好者来看看这些与众不同的收藏。另外,这里还有一个优点就是非常紧凑,一个小时就能逛完,所以游览完别的地方,不妨来这里看看,不像那些大博物馆,需要花很多时间。门票貌似是60rmb,不过我用的是阿姆斯特丹一日卡。

坦白说,这是阿姆斯特丹最棒最让人满意的地方之一。也许不知道为什么就去了,但是我还是坚信这里给我的记忆是最难忘的,作为一个女孩,我特别喜欢那里的手提包,但也并不是所有的人都会喜欢,正所谓萝卜青菜,各有所爱嘛,但如果能够去参观一下那里的房子就已经是很奢侈的事了,总体很喜欢这里!!!!

we thought it was a little pricy as it will only take a hour at most to walk around. but it was great to be able to take of your coat and leave your shopping in a locker before you walk around.

My first impression was that the entrance fee of €9.50 was expensive for such a small museum. The building itself is beautiful, particularly the central staircase. My review is based on the museum, not the cafe which looked wonderful! The exhibition spaces were quite small, the first space gives an overview of the history of bags. The Chanel space was a little underwhelming, with some bags missing from the displays. My favourite part was the 1950s/1960s bags - in colourful and novelty styles. Less successful was the exhibition of 1960s/70s style bags, most of them were pretty unremarkable, or were contemporary bags 'inspired' by retro styles. A significant amount of the ground floor was dedicated to the shop, selling handbags, it felt like you'd paid to enter a high end bag shop. Not especially a must see when in Amsterdam.

Great collection of handbags through the ages. The museum building is beautiful and the exhibits are well laid out. You can see the whole museum in about an hour. The gift shop is also neat with a great selection of handbags. But the highlight our visit was having High Tea. The tea and finger foods were amazing, the service was great, and the atmosphere is luxurious. Do it!!

Only costs €7 could of spent all day here, fascinating experience. Really well laid out, the owners are clearly passionate about there collection.

my wife thoroughly enjoyed the place as she is a handbag collector and worthy of a visit a lovely place to chill too

Woman who love bad and purse must visit this museum. You will love it. Not only history, but they give you an idea how to be stylish! :-)

Having been to Amsterdam many times, I didn't need to go to lots of tourist places. This was a nice change of pace. Interesting exhibits, not crowded, easy to see things at your own pace, not expensive. A nice stop that offered some unique exhibits.

I've already done the big history museums so I wanted to check out something different. This was so cool! Loved seeing the old purses and learning the history of handbags! Not to mention, the fabulous assortment of great purses a girl could only dream of having!

The location and the building are very nice. You start at the top and work your way down. And all the time you are thinking: would love to add this bag to my home collection ;-) Even for people who are not really interested in bags (....) were surprised about the history and meaning behind 'such a simple things as a bag' (quote coming from a man of course).

Amazing collection of handbags,travel bags and also sundry man bags dating from 17th century up to the present. Some shoes too! Really special attraction over 3 floors and beautifully arranged. Small cafe on ground floor serves delicious food (the taster selection of mini cakes excellent). The newly opened Waldorf Astoria on opposite sideof the canal. This museum is well worth a visit and it is staffed with knowledgeable volunteer guides. My friend and I loved it.

Great for the ladies. I'm not sure it would be of much interest to the men. My partner just stood around looking bored for most of time. bought a great clutch bag in the shop for a good price and I still love it!

Great selection of bags and purses beautifully displayed, with history of the development of this important accessory! Really enjoyed the Chanel exhibition and the sixties collection. Lovely shop with Dutch designer bags on offer - my husband was going to buy me one till he saw the prices. Still, a snip compared to a Mulberry. Oh well, dream on!Lovely tea room, beware, lots of stairs.
