The city is reportedly one of the best places to live in, and millions of visitors come here every year to see the great number of museums attractions. Don’t be surprised by the thousands of bicycles, as they are a very popular mode of traveling here. The city is also famous because cannabis in small quantities is not illegal, and even coffee shops use them. If you come to Amsterdman, but you are unsure what to do, here is a list of the top 20 things to do in Amsterdam.
- Leidseplein
The Leidseplein is a popular square in the center part of Amsterdam. The place is surrounded by restaurants, cafés, bars, movie theatres and casinos as well. It’s frequently visited as a gathering place and as the start of tours, so be warned that if you don’t like crowds, then this place might not be for you. But even then, the square is beautiful and worth seeing at least once.
2. Anne Frank House
One of the most known places in Amsterdam, the Anne Frank House was the residence of Anne Frank and her family, the girl whose journal became a best seller and one the most important personal documents of the Holocaust. She and her family were trapped here for years until they were found and sent to a concentration camp. The house today stands as a museum dedicated to their memory and to show how they lived there.
3. Van Gogh Museum
Just like its name suggests, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is dedicated to the one and only Vincent van Gogh. Although he wasn’t very popular during his life, he became famous worldwide after his death, both for his life and his paintings and other works of art. Most of these today are kept at this museum, including his most famous works. Some other paintings from his contemporaries also appear here. If you are interested in art, especially Van Gogh’s, then this place is high on the list of things to do in Amsterdam for you. Even if you don’t care about art, at least check out the building itself, as it has an interesting design.
