About Amsterdam, Netherlands
Amsterdam is a city built on water. Its 165 canals — listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site — are lined with 17th-century merchant houses that lean at jaunty angles, houseboats, and flower markets. The Rijksmuseum contains the world’s greatest collection of Dutch Golden Age art, including Rembrandt’s ‘The Night Watch’. The Van Gogh Museum holds the largest collection of Van Gogh works anywhere. The Anne Frank House, where a Jewish family hid from Nazi occupation for two years, is one of the most moving museum experiences in the world. Amsterdam’s Vondelpark is a beloved green lung for picnics and live music, while the Jordaan neighbourhood offers independent boutiques, galleries, and the city’s finest brown cafes (traditional Dutch pubs). Beyond the city, Keukenhof Gardens (open March–May) displays seven million tulips in full bloom — one of the world’s most spectacular horticultural spectacles. Schiphol Airport is one of Europe’s main aviation hubs, making Amsterdam an excellent gateway to the rest of the continent.
