The Netherlands: Amsterdam
Areas in the city:
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.

DE JAREN
In the university neighborhood, De Jaren café is by far the most spacious in Amsterdam providing a meeting place for intellectuals and artists. The architecture is particularly stunning, bringing much light into the space. The decor is Art Deco and Art Nouveau giving the place a serene and pleasant atmosphere. On the ground floor as well as the second floor, customers can take advantage of lovely view of the Kloveniersburgwal canal. Worth noting: the salad bar on the first floor opens at 1pm.
