Travel Description
When backpacking Europe, Amsterdam is a must... Lodging should be situated near/in/along Amsterdam's main social hubs: The Red Light District, Leidseplein, or Harlemmerstraat. Amsterdam Central is relatively small compared to other European cities so cheap lodging is often the best route - be it by the aforementioned locations or not. The most convenient and FUN way to see the city is by bike. Rental is highly recommended: http://www.macbike.nl/. Trams run regularily and on-time for the faint of heart. Sites include: Anne Frank Huis, Van Gogh Museum, Dam Square, Rijks Museum, Flower Market, Waterlooplien Matrket. Van Gogh is a must. Rijks is worthwhile. Anne Frank is necessary. Dam Square is free. Canal Tours are a great way to see the city. Boats load and unload throughout the city and run daily, all day. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Another unique perspective of the city is from the top floor of the newly disigned public library located behind Centraal Station. GO THERE: free interent. Much more to come, have to run...
