Amsterdam
is a mesmerizing, characterful and tolerant city latticed with 17th
century canals, humming with bicycles and studded with towering old
town houses and wonderful museums. This city, Netherlands' capital,
walks a delicate line between conservative culture and liberally crazed
chaos.
This is a superb strolling or biking city with endless scenic canal
views and canal boats to ease the pain when the cobbles have worn
your shoes through.

Amsterdam
must-sees are: The Jordaan district for real, tourist-free, Dutch
living with lovely canals, good restaurants, entertaining little shops
and excellent flea market [at Looiersgracht]; Begijnhof [a square
of very old and beautiful buildings], Oude Kerk [a stunning 14thC
church in the red light district], Koninklijk Paleis [a royal palace
you can wander]; the Rijksmuseum or Van Gogh museums for the best
of Dutch art; the WWII shocker Anne Frank Huis.
And don't forget to visit the bizarre red light district and coffee
shops which can be desperately tacky but provide a unique and
fascinating experience in Europe.
