The Netherlands: Amsterdam


In a nutshell...

Among the diverse cultural attractions in Amsterdam, visits to Anne Frank's house and the Van Gogh museum give a glimpse of the historical and artistic riches of the city. The capital is home to no fewer than 50 museums from the truly bizarre to the most classic collections of Dutch national heritage.


Vondel Park and the canals make up the backdrop of the city, ideal for family picnics and romantic strolls, with out for getting an essential visit to the flower market, the most famous in the world, near Muntplein. On bike or by foot, a stop at one of the city's numerous squares is a great way to get a feeling for the vibrancy of daily life in Amsterdam: in Rembrandtplein or Leidseplein, the most famous squares, you will find the well-known "brown café's".
To end the visit with a panoramic view of the city, make your way the Westerkerk and its bell tower, the tallest in Amsterdam, located in the heart of Jordaan, one of the fashionable quarters.

LE ZINC... ET LES AUTRES


The imposing bar on the ground floor came from France and has lent its name to the restaurant which it now occupies. The space, formerly a warehouse that has been nicely renoveted, offers a calm environment with indirect spot lighting accenting the abstract paintings on the walls. The cuisine is French inspired, relying on seafood (tartare and crawfish) and grilled meats (veal medallions). The little extra: the fig-nut bread that accompanies the cheese plate is made in-house. Meals start at 32€.
