    Very interesting museum, add on £7 for a tour guide which is very worth it, the tour guide has told many of the story that u cant find it from the gallery.

    Buy a cup of coffee or tea before boarding and enjoy your leisure time. Feel the customs and customs of Amsterdam on the water, see historical relics, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the beam bridge, and listen to the past and present. Before boarding, I thought what was there to see in Amsterdam. After the boat started: this experience was still good, and I could calm down and savor life. The Prince's Canal, Anne's House, West Church, "Dentures of Amsterdam", whether serious, deep, or funny, RMB 127 is still worth it. This boat is relatively basic and cost-effective; you can also try a more expensive boat full of colorful flower decorations, take pictures, and the most important thing is that there are wine waiters on the boat, and you can order wine/drinks.

    Visiting the Anne Frank House was truly unforgettable. The museum is thoughtfully curated, the exhibits are moving, and walking through the Secret Annex gives a vivid sense of history. A must-visit in Amsterdam!

    It can't be compared with the palaces in China. But the palaces in Europe are all like that. It is equipped with Chinese electronic devices for introduction, but the positioning is not very sensitive. It is better to move in the order of the code.

    It is a nice small museum in the heart of Amsterdam, Holland. This museum tells the story of Rembrandt as an artist and how he trained his disciples. There are paintings from Rembrandt himself and from his disciples. It is worth to visit and it does not take a long time to go through the whole museum.

    Dam Square is the square in front of the Royal Palace. It is not large, and including the surrounding roads, it is visually similar to a football field, but it is the core of the inner city of Amsterdam. There are both tourist attractions and bustling commercial streets around the square. The Royal Palace, the New Church, department stores, Madame Tussauds, and the Memorial to the Fallen are all around the square. It is within walking distance of Central Station, Anne's House, Waterloo Square, the Red Square, the Old Church, and the Canal District, basically no more than 1,000 meters. Even the museum area and the surrounding parks can be walked. The Van Gogh Museum, the National Museum, etc. are about 2 kilometers away. The ground of the square is still the old gravel road surface, and it is bustling and crowded no matter day or night. Go to the airport and take the train directly at the Central Station. The commercial street and the surrounding areas are full of restaurants and bars, and it is very pleasant to have a drink. The square itself is open and no tickets are required.
