Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands where cobblestone streets meet beautiful canals and the bicycles outnumber the cars. It is one of the most travelled to cities in not only Europe, but the world and has so much to offer. This blog will outline the best tips to ensure that your visit to Amsterdam is the best it could be.
Starting the trip off just a 10-minute walk from the main
train station, Amsterdam Centraal, in Dam Square. This is the heart of the city
and the busiest place for tourists and locals. Here you will find amazing
restaurants, bars, and shops surrounded by some famous landmarks. Make sure to
stop by the National Monument which is in the centre of Dam Square.
Next, discover the museum district which is home to renowned
museums such as the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum
which are all located within walking distance of each other. The Anne Frank
House is also a must-visit when you are exploring Amsterdam.
Amsterdam is also very infamous for its adult-themed
entertainment. The red-light district is in the centre of Amsterdam and is
