Amsterdam
Sitting on the edge of a canal, listening to the bustle of people, the whir of bicycle wheels and the clip clop of cobblestone streets; Amsterdam is a city with the charm of a town. There are certainly plenty of sights to see, but this city also lends itself to a slower pace of travel. Wandering down laneways and along canals, sipping various brews of coffee or beer, this city is designed to be explored. No two visitors will experience Amsterdam in the same way. Some will prefer the nightlife, ‘Brown Cafes’ and Red Light District. Others will enjoy the canals, windmills and tulips. Yet, even more will be surprised by the renowned museums and art galleries on offer in this quaint, yet bustling city. Perhaps you’d like to try a little bit of everything? Whatever the reason, if you’ve chosen to explore Amsterdam, you’ve chosen to experience a chocolate-box city – what you’ll find when you arrive is entirely up to you.
