Amsterdam 750 Birthday
Hello Everyone! Today I’d like to share a few thoughts about something very special — Amsterdam’s 750th Birthday. Yes, in October 2025 this incredible city celebrates seven and a half centuries of life, culture, and change. That’s a number almost impossible to imagine, yet the energy of Amsterdam feels as alive as ever.
For those of us who live here, create here, or even just love this city from afar, this anniversary is not only about fireworks or festivals. It’s about reflection. About time. About what this city means to each of us.
The Soul of a City
Amsterdam has always been more than canals and bikes. It’s a living organism — made of people, ideas, rebellion, and art. It’s the smell of coffee in the morning by the canal, the hum of bicycles after rain, the sound of languages mixing at every corner. It’s a place that accepts, that inspires, and that changes those who let it in.
Cities, just like tattoos, evolve. They hold scars, memories, layers of color and story. Each generation leaves a mark — just as each tattoo tells a part of someone’s personal journey.
Tattoo as a Tribute
For some, this anniversary might be a moment to reflect quietly. For others, maybe it’s an opportunity to mark it — literally.
I’ve been thinking lately how a tattoo can be a beautiful way to pay tribute to Amsterdam’s 750 years. Not as a trend, not as a logo, but as a personal reminder of what the city has given You.
It doesn’t have to be obvious — maybe a subtle line resembling the canal map, SMALL TULIP, crosses of Amsterdam, or even the number 750 hidden within another design. What matters is the meaning.
A tattoo, like this city, is a commitment. You carry it with You — its story, its imperfection, its beauty.
A City of Patience and Flow
If there’s something Amsterdam teaches every artist, it’s patience. You can’t rush the light reflecting on the water or the rhythm of life here. Everything flows in its own pace. The same goes for creating art, for tattooing, for living.
Amsterdam wasn’t built in a day — and neither is a meaningful tattoo. Both take time, heart, and dedication.
Final Words
As we approach this special anniversary, let’s celebrate Amsterdam not only for its age but for its spirit — for its courage to remain open, diverse, and ever-changing.
If You carry this city in Your heart, maybe it’s time to give it a place on Your skin too — as a silent thank You, a symbol of belonging, a tribute to 750 years of life by the canals. You can always CONTACT US
Much love,
Simon
