[2024 Amsterdam Stay] Travel Guide for Via Amsterdam (Updated Dec)
Amsterdam, more than just windmills
#2023travelwish
One of my most wished for travel destination is Amsterdam, Netherlands. Amsterdam is the capital of Netherlands, also previously known as Holland.
I travelled in a group pre-Covid and would love to visit Amsterdam once again. It is a beautiful country with very nice and friendly people. Moreover, everywhere is so picturesque and requires no camera filter.
At Zaanse Schans, besides seeing the windmills, we can got to experience Dutch traditions like clog and cheese making.
We went in autumn/winter and got to see all the beautiful flowers at Keukenhof -- it was such a breathtaking sight.
Amsterdam is definitely more than just windmills, tulips and sex workers.

Amsterdam, city and port, western Netherlands, located on the IJsselmeer and connected to the North Sea. It is the capital and the principal commercial and financial centre of the Netherlands.
To the scores of tourists who visit each year, Amsterdam is known for its historical attractions, for its collections of great art, and for the distinctive colour and flavour of its old sections, which have been so well preserved. However, visitors to the city also see a crowded metropolis beset by environmental pollution, traffic congestion, and housing shortages. It is easy to describe Amsterdam, which is more than 700 years old, as a living museum of a bygone age and to praise the eternal beauty of the centuries-old canals, the ancient patrician houses, and the atmosphere of freedom and tolerance, but the modern city is still working out solutions to the pressing urban problems that confront it.
