Famous for its artistic heritage, the capital of Netherlands, Amsterdam welcomes visitors with its massive canal systems and peculiar narrow houses. The architecture boasts of the legacies that date all the way back to the Golden age of the 17th century. One of the favourite neighbourhoods is the De Pijp which translates into ‘The Pipe’. Home to many people of different cultures in the past, this place is also known as the Latin Quarter of Amsterdam. For cycle enthusiasts, this place is a must and many of the cycling tours can be accompanied with cheese tastings and countryside views. For the history buffs, the Rijksmuseum is a treat as its showcase of over 8,000 exhibitions will leave you mesmerised about the Dutch culture and tradition. The Anne Frank House is one of the most important museums here as the house explores a young girl’s life during the German occupation in World War II. Known throughout the world for his paintings, Vincent Van Gogh’s memory is kept alive through his bright colour palates displayed in over 200 paintings and 500 drawings in the Van Gogh museum established here. Also one can experience the world’s only floating flower market, Bloemenmarkt in Amsterdam.
