Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, is a city where history and modern creativity flow together as smoothly as its canals. Known as the “Venice of the North”, its UNESCO-listed canal ring is best explored by boat or on two wheels, with locals cycling past gabled houses, flower markets, and cozy cafés.
Culture thrives here: the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, and Anne Frank House offer world-class experiences. Yet Amsterdam is equally about wandering — from the vibrant Jordaan district with its boutique shops to the buzzing Albert Cuyp Market. Spring brings tulips in bloom, while December glows with festive lights.
📍 Location: North Holland, The Netherlands
🕒 Best Time to Visit: April–May for tulip season, or September for mild weather and fewer crowds
💡 Tips:
• Rent a bike to explore like a local.
• Book museum tickets online early — they sell out fast.
• Try Dutch specialties like stroopwafels and fresh herring at street stalls.
