Amsterdam - Reguliersbreestraat.
The Tuschinski movie theater was founded during the Roaring Twenties. It is included in the list of Rijksmonuments (national heritage sites) of the Netherlands.
The building was commissioned by businessman Abraham Icek Tuschinski at a cost of circa 4 million guilders. Construction was carried out by architect Hijman Louis de Jong and started in 1919.
The facade blends several architectural styles: Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Jugendstil and the Amsterdam School (Wp).
It was elected the most beautiful cinema in the world by Time Out Magazine in 2021.
Time Out says:
This extraordinary cinema is named after Abraham Tuschinski, Amsterdam's single most illustrious cinematic entrepreneur. Built in 1921 as a 'world theatre palace', the decoration is an arresting clash of rococo, art deco and Jugendstil, which can make it difficult to keep your eyes on the silver screen. This is where glittering premieres usually take place to road-blocking effect.
Such a great opportunity being able to take pictures in an empty Pathé Tuschinski Theatre. Great thanks to the organiser and to the people of this historic cinema in the centre of Amsterdam.
Operated by the Cineac chain of news theatres, this cinema was probably the best of its type. It was located directly opposite the famed Tuschinski Theatre on the narrow Reguliersbreestraat.
It was opened on 18th October 1934. Architect. Jan Duiker.

The morning 7th of February I woke up to see Amsterdam covered in a coat of fresh snow. The snow fell in sudden flurries and gusts and turned the world white and wonderful. With the canals in the city and occasional high winds, there can be a nip in the air, but packing gloves and a scarf should keep you warm enough. There is something very beautiful about Amsterdam in the winter. It snowed for the second time this winter in Amsterdam. Because the temperature was -4 degrees Celsius the snow stayed. The real feel temperature was -11 degrees Celsius cause there was a strong wind and drifting snow. It got more than a few centimeters of snow. The best advice is to stay indoors and turn the stove up a bit. Or of course to go outside to take some nice pictures. The snow is a rare highlight in these February dark days, especially when you have small children. It is quite difficult to come up with something fun in these Covid-19 lock-down days. After a while, sitting indoors becomes quite monotonous for such a toddler. This is a welcome change. The snow also provides a lot of fun for children here in centre of Amsterdam. Snowball fight, make snowmen or go sledding. All fun activities that children do in this beautiful snowy world.
Since the first snow had stuck to the ground, the neighborhood has turned out for a carefree winter entertainment. The next days it will keep on snowing. Expected more than 17 cm snow in Amsterdam. Enjoy a thick layer of snow in your own neighborhood. The Munttoren, also known as De Munt, is officially called the Regulierstoren and used to be part of the Regulierspoort. This city gate was one of the three main gates of Amsterdam's medieval fortifications. The tower's nickname refers to the fact that coins were minted in the adjacent guardhouse in the 17th century. The tower got its current name in the Disaster Year 1672, when Amsterdam was temporarily given the right to mint because French troops occupied large parts of the country, and it was not possible to transport silver and gold to other places. The tower is located on the Muntplein. Today it is a busy intersection between Kalverstraat and Reguliersbreestraat, close to the flower market on the Singel. The Tuschinski Theater is located in Reguliersbreestraat. The former Cineac (now a restaurant and club) is also located here. Today, Reguliersbreestraat is an anonymous tourist street but during the lockdown days not many tourist in the centre of Amsterdam.
Vanmorgen 7 februari werd ik wakker en zag Amsterdam bedekt met een laag verse sneeuw. De sneeuw die vannacht viel bedekte de wereld om ons heen wit en prachtig. Ik heb mijn camera gepakt en op pad gegaan in m'n buurtje. Ik geniet van het geluid van knarsende sneeuw onder mijn schoenen en het prachtige gezicht op de Amsterdamse grachtenpanden. Het is min vier graden en het blijft vandaag de hele dag sneeuwen. Met een stevige wind is de gevoelstemperatuur zelf -11 graden. Mijn handschoenen en m'n sjaal houden mij warm genoeg. Er is iets heel moois over Amsterdam in de winter. Amsterdam is bedolven onder dik pak sneeuw zoals hierboven op het Reguliersbreestraat. Het beste advies is dan maar om lekker binnen te blijven en de kachel iets hoger te zetten. Of natuurlijk even naar buiten te gaan om wat mooie plaatjes te schieten. In Amsterdam heeft het nu voor de tweede keer deze winter gesneeuwd. Bij deze temperatuur blijft de sneeuw liggen. Er is meer dan enkele centimeters sneeuw gevallen. De sneeuw is een zeldzaam hoogtepunt in deze donkere dagen in februari. De Munttoren, ook wel De Munt genoemd, heet officieel Regulierstoren en maakte vroeger deel uit van de Regulierspoort. Deze stadspoort was een van de drie hoofdpoorten van de middeleeuwse vestingwerken van Amsterdam. De bijnaam van de toren verwijst naar het feit dat er in de 17e eeuw in het aangrenzende wachthuis munten werden geslagen. De toren kreeg zijn huidige naam in het Rampjaar 1672, toen Amsterdam tijdelijk het recht van muntslag kreeg omdat Franse troepen grote delen van het land bezet hielden, en het niet mogelijk was zilver en goud te transporteren naar andere plaatsen. De toren staat op het Muntplein. Het is tegenwoordig een druk kruispunt tussen Kalverstraat en Reguliersbreestraat, vlak bij de bloemenmarkt op het Singel. In de Reguliersbreestraat is het Tuschinski Theater gevestigd. Voorts bevindt zich hier de voormalige Cineac (nu restaurant en club). Tegenwoordig is de Reguliersbreestraat een anonieme toeristenstraat. Nu tijdens de lockdown zijn er weinig toeristen in het centrum van Amsterdam.
The beautiful Tuschinski cinema ceiling changes colour - so I thought I'd get two and stick them together 😊

De Electrische Museumtramlijn Amsterdam reed van 27 tot 30 december na twee jaar afwezigheid ten gevolge van corona weer de traditonele stadsritten tussen kerst en oud en nieuw. Doordat de ritten tot 17.00u zijn kunnen de trams ook in de schemering bewonderd worden. Toen het gisteren, vrijdag de 30e, ook nog regende leek het me een aardig moment om te proberen het maximale uit de camera te halen. Weinig licht, een rijdende tram, een immer grote winkelende mensenmassa en zelf maar weinig zien door natte beslagen brillenglazen is natuurlijk het perfecte moment om te gaan fotograferen haha.
Doel was om een van de trams komend uit de Reguliersbreestraat te fotograferen bekend van Tuschinski. Aardig detail is dat de 465 hier op de foto gebouwd werd in 1929 en daarmee slechts luttele jaren scheelt met de in 1934 opgeleverde Cineac bioscoop van architect Johannes Duiker waarvan de gigantische lichtreclame goed te zien is.
Staand midden op de zebra over het Muntplein om in ieder geval een deel van het kruisend verkeer uit te sluiten lukte het niet om de tram geheel zonder mensen te fotograferen. Maar ach, dat hoort misschien ook wel bij fotograferen in de stad. En he, is de man in het midden niet de in 2022 in opspraak geraakte popster Kanye West?
Enfin, fijne jaarwisseling voor nu & dat iedereen maar veel mooie foto's mag maken in 2023!

EMA, short for Electrische Museumtramlijn Amsterdam, had it's yearly cityrides in downtown Amsterdam from the 27th to the 30th of December. Running until 5PM it made for an excellent opportunity to photograph old trams during blue hour.

The theater of Abraham Tuschinski opened its doors in 1921.
Mr. Tuschinski thought that every person had a right to relax.
The Tuschinski Theater made his dream come true and hosted great artists like Marlene Dietrich, Edith Piaf and Josephine Baker. These days the Tuschinski Theater in Amsterdam is a cinema..
Le Théâtre Tuschinski (ou Pathé Tuschinski ; en néerlandais Tuschinski Theater) est un théâtre situé à Amsterdam. Il fut premièrement utilisé par l'entrepreneur polonais-néerlandais Abraham Icek Tuschinski, qui finança sa construction avec 4 millions de florins. Dessiné par Hijman Louis, le jeune, le théâtre rassemble divers styles artistiques : l'art déco, l'art nouveau et l'école d'Amsterdam. Actuellement, il est utilisé surtout par les premières des films.
La façade a un style art déco avec des influences orientales pour que le public ait la sensation d'entrer dans une illusion. L'auditoire principal fut idée pour des performances théâtrales et garde encore un orgue et un scénario où on met toujours en scène des œuvres théâtrales.
Le théâtre avait un système électro-technologique très novateur pour son époque, qui permettait de maintenir tout le théâtre ventilé et à température constante.
Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale il reçut le nom non-juif de Tivoli et, de 1998 à 2002, il fut reconstruit et trois nouveaux auditoires furent annexés.

I just love Amsterdam at night.
Amsterdam is the capital and largest city of the Netherlands, located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country. The city, which had a population of 1.36 million on 1 January 2008, comprises the northern part of the Randstad, the sixth-largest metropolitan area in Europe, with a population of around 6.7 million.
Its name is derived from Amstellerdam, indicative of the city's origin: a dam in the river Amstel. Settled as a small fishing village in the late 12th century, Amsterdam became one of the most important ports in the world during the Dutch Golden Age, a result of its innovative developments in trade. During that time, the city was the leading centre for finance and diamonds. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the city expanded, and many new neighborhoods and suburbs were formed.
The city is the financial and cultural capital of the Netherlands. Many large Dutch institutions have their headquarters there, and 7 of the world's top 500 companies, including Philips and ING, are based in the city. The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, the oldest stock exchange in the world, is located in the city centre. Amsterdam's main attractions, including its historic canals, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum, Hermitage Amsterdam, Anne Frank House, its red-light district, and its many cannabis coffee shops draw more than 3.66 million international visitors annually.

Tuschinski Theater Amsterdam
The Koninklijk Theater Tuschinski (English: Royal Theater Tuschinski) is a movie theatre in Amsterdam, Netherlands, near Rembrandtplein.
The theater was founded by Abraham Tuschinski, together with his brothers-in-law Hermann Gerschtanowitz and Hermann Ehrlich. Tuschinski at the time already operated four theaters in Rotterdam and wanted to open a theater in Amsterdam of worldclass. Construction started on 18 June 1919, the theater was built in Art Deco, Jugendstil and the Amsterdams School style at a cost of circa ƒ 4 million. Tuschinski wanted to open the theatre with the first theatre organ in the Netherlands; unfortunately Wurlitzer couldn't deliver one in time. Determined to open with an organ Tuschinski travelled to Brussels to acquire an existing one from another cinema. On October 28, 1921, the theatre opened its doors for the first time and on the next day Dutch newspaper Het Vaderland wrote: "We declare before us generously that the wildest expectations have been exceeded and that Mr. Tuschinski has donated a theater to our country, of which are unparalleled."
On 28 October 2021 Femke Halsema, mayor of Amsterdam, announced that King William-Alexander granted the cinema the royal predicate, renaming the complex to Koninklijk Theater Tuschinski (Royal Theater Tuschinski).
The western facade is flanked by two towers. It is decorated with ceramic sculptures and contains several leadlight windows. The facade blends several architectural styles: Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Jugendstil and the Amsterdam School.
