Amsterdam

Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, known for its artistic heritage, its elaborate canal system and its narrow gabled houses, heirlooms from the city's Golden Age during the 17th century. The Museum District is home to the van Gogh Museum, works by Rembrandt and Vermeer in the Rijksmuseum, and modern art in the Stedelijk Museum. Cycling is key to the identity of the city and there are several paths to practice it.
