Amsterdam

Amsterdam, the capital city of the Netherlands, has a beautiful cityscape that still retains the glory of the golden age of the 17th century. Along the canals that stretch in a radial pattern, gabled-roofed houses line the streets, and boats and bicycles come and go, creating a unique scene. The city is a World Heritage site that can be fully enjoyed by taking a canal cruise or strolling, and is full of interesting sightseeing spots such as the Royal Palace, which was built as City Hall in the 17th century, several museums of Dutch paintings, and Anne Frank House.
