If there go and see the works of ‘ Vrouwen van Verwondering’ exhibition. Ruchama Noorda’s work lies at the outskirts but is the one that is the most breath raking

To be honest, I didn't really expect such a beautiful place here. You can take a bus there directly from Sloterdijk station. You can reach the village in 500m from the bus stop. We found a very quiet, beautiful place in nature. Time almost stands still here and it invites you to relax. At the church you can get drinks and toilets. In front of the church there is like a small garden to sit down. We didn't find much tourism there. The people who live there are very friendly. All in all one of the most beautiful places in Amsterdam. We will definitely come back.

Even on a drizzly day, this location looks very cozy with cheerful creative expressions.

I loooooove this place!! Great party’s and events

Super nice to see....special!!!😊❤

Incredible place! Came here a few times for different events. Lovely people and a really cosy vibe, you can really feel a sense of community here.

An amazing place, met some wonderful people. Their arts and crafts are absolutely gorgeous. Loved it and looking forward to going back next year.

Contemporary, unruly and progressive. Art and culture. Keep track of their agenda! Still recommended.

Fantastic, peaceful place ❤️

Rough, lots of art, funky clothes stands & good snacky food & drinks. Always great events & festivals! If you go, leave your high heels 👠 at home!

Every Sunday at Ruigoord has a different theme, Het Woord is not the most popular but yesterday was really great fun. 2nd Sunday's 'The Word' is a poetry afternoon. This edition was a celebration of the age achievements of the two organisers Yvonne van Doorn Mousset & pioneer village squatter, original, NL beat poet, satyr Hans Plomp. Generally the poet's and poetry are fairly standard 20th century fare. There is a marked lack of microphone technique. One very frustrated audience member said in the outside smoking room 'They talk into the microphone and then just when the get to the denouement they artistically turn their head to declare it but, not into the microphone'! And a Pisa like leaning towards the boring. The marked and noticeable exceptions were in the (official) second half with nail biting stories of boyhood in occupied NL by Niels Hamel. When he said he would be reading from his autobiography I thought (yawn). When he said he couldn't find a publisher I wasn't surprised. After sitting through 2 stories, straining to ensure I heard and understood every word, literally moving to the end of my seat. I think it's ridiculous no publisher is interested. Aja Waalwijk was as always; iconoclastic, clever, tricksy, amusing, sharp and right on the button. Am I allowed to say that Maxi McNaughty left a fair few very uncomfortable with her 'Who Me' piece and then made it all alright with an acapella version of Assad's 'Shine'. As one person said 'She connected to spirit and brought it down' After the 'final' performance, people kept popping up to do more which was relatively uninspiring except for a surprise rap by 'Paul'.

Great party, amazing vibe

Amazing community 🧡

BeadGuru was is their element here , what a super atmosphere this place has

Magical, spiritual, Stargate to another universe. In few words: Ruigoord

🇳🇱❤

Do not tell anyone

Feels like coming home for Open minded, Free spirit, Creative and Loving people with Beautiful hearts Sharing and Caring for each other, close to Nature, they'll Accept you with Respect of Norms and Value.

A true gem... a free cultural space to be cherised. A place where likeminded people from all over the world meet and exchange arts and ideas, rooted in important art movements such as beat, fluxus and provo. Also a place where indigenous wisdom is being aknowledged, and where ecology is highly valued and explored for the benefit of all.

The last hippie resort... Love the vibe. ♥️

Beautiful location. Beautiful vibe. Amazing events

Loved the experience and the atmosphere of the place. I will definitely come back :)

It seems like there's a fantastic community here, making alternative accessible public artd and culture. Highly recommended to go there and be gently challenged entertained and inspired by what they have created

I've been in Ruigoord due to the landjuweel festival. It was amazing, a completely different and unique festival. It's a pity it's only celebrated once per year!

It was jazz night when I came. It's so chill and lovely full of bubbles and lights and nice music and ppl around:)

It's nothing special, just some overgrown buildings inhabited by unique folk

Revisit Ruigoord and always surprises. Friends are always their to welcome and greet.

Amazing art community, many studios to visit and parties to attend. A small heaven close to Amsterdam.

Interesting place to visit and get some inspiration if you like contemporary/alternative art. Place where you can feel free to express yourself and hang out with like minded people.

A cool village, the nicest community in the world, a green garden in the center of Holland

The best place to disconnect. Is magic.
