The capital attraction of the Netherlands

Amsterdam is the jewel in the crown of the Netherlands. After all you can't deny it is the capital of culture, coffeeshops and canals. The city is just a short trip from the UK, yet it sets itself apart with a distinctly continental style of neat rows of townhouses opening to airy squares. For an experience that will stay with you forever, you could see the vivid swirls of Van Gogh or even the house and original diary of Anne Frank.

Amsterdam's mesmerising beauty is hard to overestimate and well worthy of a short city break. But don't forget that the stunning metropoles of the Netherlands are only hours, or even minutes, away from Amsterdam by train. Haarlem, Groningen City, Rotterdam, Utrecht City, Den Haag, Leiden, Delft, Maastricht - the list seems endless.

Head for amazing Amsterdam!

The city of Amsterdam certainly proves to be the biggest draw in the Netherlands. Have your city break here and you’ll enjoy an intensely cultured experience, marvelling at the Dutch masterworks in the Rijks and Van Gogh Museums. Of course, that’s not forgetting that Amsterdam has a quirky side too, whether you decide to visit the clog-making museum or the infamous Red Light District!

 

Delicious Dutch cuisine

While you’re in Amsterdam, you should look out for the many Dutch delicacies on offer. Taking a tip from Scandinavia, a peculiar favourite of the locals is the odorous herring, either raw, pickled or boiled! Brace yourself for the pungent flavour by washing it all down with some Dutch gin or light and frothy wheat beer. You could even sweeten things up a bit with a classic apple pie!

 

Be there or be square

Following on from its neighbours on the continent, such as Italy and Czech Republic, the Netherlands features sizeable squares and Amsterdam is no exception. That includes Dam Square, lined with grand palaces and museums, which serves as the focal point for fun fairs and all kinds of events.

 

There's no place quite like the Netherlands but don't take our word for it; the only way to really see this country is close up - you won't be disappointed.
