Amsterdam is the perfect city for a weekend getaway. The city with its beautiful canals and quaint neighborhoods will suprise you time and time again. And the endless array of shops, bars, cafes, restaurants, galleries, museums, concerts and events ensures that Amsterdam is never boring! On a beautiful sunny day there are many options; take the Amsterdam City Bike Tour or visit one of Amsterdam's urban city beachesa good alternative for the busy beaches near the sea, you'll love it. The center of Amsterdam has many attractions including classics such as Dam Square, the Red Light District and the museums on the Museumplein, Rijksmuseum and van Gogh. But there is much more to see in Amsterdam! The many different neighborhoods have their own character and its small villages themselves. Get to know this place in the way the residents of Amsterdam experience their city. Forget the Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein and discover the hip and trendy Haarlemmerbuurt, Jordaan, Pijp but in recent years, especially the IJ harbor and the Eastern Docklands, where you will find modern bars, trendy restaurants and inspiring architecture back. Amsterdam is a diverse city with a unique flair that you desire to do again and again.

Around the Central Station you'll even find a hotel with a beautiful rooftop terrace with amazing views, also the cocktail bar on the top of the Okura Hotel is a good option.

I love Amsterdam

Amsterdam is known for its sights and tourist spots and is unique in its kind where everything seems to be allowed and able. Unique to the Amsterdam canal walls, it can be seen all in Amsterdam. Everywhere you go you see water, bridges, buildings and many bikes. Without world-famous buildings still has a center to be proud of. The concatenated canal houses reminiscent of the glorious VOC period. The canals are so unique that it was placed in 2010 on the World Heritage List. In addition, the city has a great choice of good international restaurants, the nightlife is diverse, public transport is well organized and Amsterdam has many comfortable hotels. Every Sunday the shops in the center are open and you want to take a breather outside of the city; then pick up the train and you stand in half an hour on the beach at Zandvoort.

Tours and day-trips around Amsterdam

Dutch day trips and tours around Amsterdam are recommended, it can be a pleasure to get away from the crowds of Amsterdam and experience the sights of the Netherlands at a more relaxed way. There are beautiful views with polders and one of the best places to see windmills in action, called the Zaanse Schans, close to Amsterdam also amazing parks with flowers like the Keukenhof and don't forget to visit the famous Holland Flower Route if you come along in April. Holland has many old castles and ruins like Muiderslot in Muiderberg and ancient villages like Alkmaar has many fine architectural monuments and old guild houses from the 16th and 17th centuries but the highlight of this picturesque town is its world famous Cheese Market,one of the best-known tourist attractions of the Netherlands. But also the old charming fishing villages Volendam, Edam and Marken are well worth a visit, these popular tourist places has lots of museums, souvenir shops and restaurants with a spectacular harbor view. Most tours and day-trips are offered with a luxury bus and accompanied by a guide but most sights are also easy to reach by public transport, ask information at Central Station. In short; Amsterdam has everything for young and old! That's why I love Amsterdam so much.

Floating Flower Market of Amsterdam

The famous Floating Flower Market at Amsterdam's Singel Canal is one of the most colorful and fragrant regions of interest in the Canal District. It's very special that the merchandise is displayed on many floating barges at one of the oldest canals of Amsterdam. This is the culture and history from the days when the , bulbs and flowers were traded at this market and shipped in from the horticultural areas around the city by barges. Fresh plants and flowers are still brought in every day, mostly by modern trucks and no longer by boat.
