Van Gogh Museum
生生长在海边的果果I went to the Netherlands with my niece. She loves art and likes Van Gogh, so I accompanied her to look at every painting in the museum. I couldn't really tell what was good about it, but I was very humble and basically took pictures of the paintings that the guide focused on. Due to the limit on the number of pictures, only 15 pictures can be posted. Friends who have not been there can take a good look.
Canals of Amsterdam
__TX***newent a while back but i could walk around the canals all day long. nice to sit at a cafe along the canal and take jn the views and watch the day go by.
Red Light District Amsterdam Centrum
__TI***z6A very must experience to see, I highly recommend a night time visit as the lights make it come alive, although you can still get the vibe all day too! the area itself is busy, but safe. there are plenty of bars and food surrounding too! There is a selection of museums you can visit , educating on the history of sex workers.The only downfall for myself was the smell of urine from the outside toilets!

Amsterdam RAI
MM32***23It is an oversized convention center, I have been to many other convention centers, but this convention center is huge by comparison. I came here last year for the 2019 Fiber to Home Conference in March and it was spectacular. There is a subway near the convention center, but I got here by taxi. It is not a tourist attraction, it is only used for various meetings.
Dam
LLavender and SunDam Square was originally built at the end of the 12th century. The north of the Dam Square on the Amstor River is now the Old Town. The houses in this area used to be shops and were very lively. A celebrity was also born here - Zacharias Jansen, the inventor of the telescope.
Chinatown Amsterdam
小小思文Chinatown is the largest Chinese community in the Netherlands. Many Chinese came here hundreds of years ago. Relying on the Netherlands' rich maritime trade and shipping, Amsterdam, as an important human resources transfer port, has attracted many Chinese.
Anne Frank House
PPriyaI am so grateful to Ctrip. I was able to get the tickets to the Anne Frank Museum even though the reservation was so tight. I highly recommend the exhibition. In the house where Anne stayed, I felt the fear and separation that the war brought to the Jewish family. Observing the world from the perspective of a child brings positive energy. Although the reality is cruel, it makes people cherish life and family and love peace.
Singel Flower Market
杨杨昊鑫The most famous flower market in Amsterdam is Singer Flower Market. Singer Flower Market, located in the center of Amsterdam, is the only floating flower market in the world. It is worth a visit and recommended to everyone who loves flowers. The glass flower houses are neatly placed on the river, and the fragrance of the flowers spreads, filling the entire river and the entire street. Although these flowers are extremely beautiful, the prices are actually very low.
