This city, full of colorful homes, canals and bridges, is one of Europe's most picturesque capitals. Must-sees on any visitor's itinerary include the Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh Museum and the world's only floating flower market. Rent a bike and join thousands of locals navigating Amsterdam's labyrinthine streets, or just take in the sights on foot. For an unusual and memorable alternative to hotels, consider staying in a houseboat.

Walk with a historian through the old Jewish Quarter. I will show you more than 15 sites that tell us part of the tragic story of the Holocaust. Among them the headquarters of the Jewish Council, Anne Frank's high school and the theatre that served as a deportation centre. Different monuments, buildings, squares and parks show us different aspects of the darkest page in the otherwise glorious history of beautiful Amsterdam. Let me take you on a walk and show them to you. Our starting point will be in front of the building at Weesperplein 1, with the letters GGD written on it. We will walk along the Amstel River, some beautiful canals and our tour will end in the Plantage Quarter, next to Amsterdam zoo Artis.
Our tour guide Alex was really knowledgable and went further back in Amsterdam’s history to explain the context. He was really interesting and thought provoking but also had a good sense of humour. 2.5 hours went by quickly and we saw a lot of the city not on the normal tourist footpath. Great value for money and highly recommended.

The Tropenmuseum is a museum about people, housed in an impressive listed building overlooking Amsterdam's Oosterpark. The extensive permanent display and regularly changing exhibitions feature objects that all have a story to tell about humankind. Stories about universal human themes like mourning, celebration, ornamentation, prayer, conflict. From Africa to West and Southeast Asia, from New Guinea to Latin America: come to the Tropenmuseum and discover that, despite cultural differences, we are all essentially the same.
I visited the Tropen Museum because it was within easy walking distance of my hostel Stayokay Oost and I was very pleased I did so. It had a wide range of exhibits on modern relevant issues: the Japanese Anime phenomenon; pilgrimage to Mecca and the Dutch colonisation of Indonesia and slavery issues. I also highly recommend the Tropperje (Dutch mini pancakes) in the restaurant.

The Dappermarkt is a local market in the east part of Amsterdam, local people buy their food , clothes , daily shoppings , real Dutch snacks and Many other things on this market at local prices , it is close to the zoo and Tropenmuseum
It is a great market seemingly largely unknown to tourists. Offering both dutch and ethnic produce, it is perfect for some cheese and other food shopping at many times smaller prices than the central shops!
