Hallo, amsterdam

With its characteristic canals (UNESCO World Heritage) surrounded by narrow, low, and crooked 17th-century houses, Amsterdam is, undoubtedly, one of the most charming capital cities in Europe. The rich cultural life and a wide range of entertainment make Amsterdam a full-scale city which has managed to retain its small-town feel. With over 50 museums, of which many are famous across the globe, this city is a real treat for art lovers: highlights include the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, and the Stedelijk Museum.

Royal Coster Diamonds

Each year, about 340,000 visitors come to see the Royal Coster Diamonds craftsmen at work. Free guided tours demonstrating the process of cutting and polishing diamonds are led by Coster’s accommodating staff. The tours are available in more than 24 languages.

STRAAT Museum

STRAAT Museum redefines the gallery experience inside a spacious warehouse at Amsterdam’s NDSM wharf, reachable via a free ferry from Centraal Station. Inside, over 180 monumental works by 170 global artists (including Eduardo Kobra’s towering Anne Frank mural) were created on-site, preserving the spontaneity of outdoor graffiti. The raw, industrial space lets you watch artists at work during rotating exhibitions. Unlike traditional museums, STRAAT embraces street art’s rebellious roots: massive stencils by Banksy-esque provocateurs share space with hidden tags. The café serves gluten-free treats, and the gift store stocks affordable prints. Post-visit, explore NDSM’s open-air murals that blur the line between museum and street art.

De Wallen

Every visitor is aware of the existence of Amsterdam's red light district, locally referred to as De Wallen. Some head there straightaway while others prefer to walk around it — the choice is yours. The truth is, you will likely end up wandering through the area simply because of its location right in the city centre. The best way to get acquainted with the city's most notorious neighbourhood and discover its stories and secrets is by joining a walking tour. Follow your guide through winding cobblestone streets and narrow alleys as you learn the history behind Amsterdam's infamous adult destination. See, along the way, oddities like the world's first condom shop, the Museum of Prostitution, as well as little-known sculptures, and sex theatres.
