Amsterdam

Amsterdam, the city of the bicycle, once settled as a small fishing village in the late 12th century. Today the capital of the Netherlands is a much loved tourist summer destination. Amsterdam is well known for its historic canals (Grachten), the Rijk- and the Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank House and a paradise for all flower passionates. At night, the city is like a human zoo with all sorts of wonderful and sometimes nefarious things to explore. Make sure to leave your inhibitions behind in the dusty closet as your eyes will discover the openness of usual prohibitions. Amidst the crazy nightlife, from the red light district to some cutting-edge clubs, don't forget to stop by a coffee shop for your usual dose of whatever.
