A rich historical, cultural and architectural heritage
There are more than 50 museums to visit in Amsterdam. They include the famous Van Gogh museum, dedicated entirely to the Dutch painter and exhibiting more than 200 paintings and 500 drawings, and the renowned Rijksmuseum, whose displays focus on fine arts, art & crafts and the history of the Netherlands. Another must-visit attraction is Anne Frank's house, where the young girl and her family hid for more than two years during the Second World War. While in hiding, Anne wrote her famous diary.
Amsterdam is considered as a model example of town planning. Its architecture is surprising, with elegant facades, numerous catholic and protestant churches, and the oldest church in Amsterdam (Oude Kerk).
Its 17th century canals are on the UNESCO world heritage list, and its many parks and green spaces are perfect for a stroll in a friendly and welcoming setting.
Cycling in Amsterdam
Amsterdam is a historic city, with many interesting places to discover. Since the city is not very big, the bicycle rules, and is the ideal means of transport. It lets you gets around easily, with uninterrupted views of the scenery. It's also perfect for longer excursions along the canals. The cycle paths and lanes have their own traffic signals to make cycling safe and uncomplicated. What's more, there are almost no gradients, which makes it easy to get around without exhausting yourself. Ask for an "Amsterdam on the bike" map from the tourist office, which gives you all the information you'll need (routes, repair shops, restricted areas, etc.).
A bike tour is a great way to get to know the city and explore its various quarters. Don't miss: the Jordaan (the most well-known and the most picturesque), Pijp (the most lively), the city centre (with the Royal Palace, Dam Square, Amsterdam museum…), the Red Light district (whose reputation precedes it!), China town, the Jewish quarter, etc.
Seeing the city from the canals
Amsterdam and its history are intimately linked to water. A tour of the city's canals is an impressive and magical experience. The canals embody everything that is so appealing about the city, so make sure you include a cruise in your itinerary. You will discover the city from another, somewhat unusual perspective, and will take away some unforgettable memories. There are many departure points across the capital, with several companies offering guided tours in several languages.
If you are feeling fit and up for a challenge, rent a pedalo to explore the canals at your own pace via this practical and original means of transport.
Finally, floating accommodation is also available for your stay! Amsterdam's houseboat hotels enjoy an excellent reputation. Chic and authentic, one or more nights spent actually on the canals will no doubt leave you with a treasured memory of your trip./p>
