Covering up the typo sign that reads Hamsterdam. |
If you talk to people who have visited Amsterdam, they'll all tell you the same thing: AMSTERDAM WAS THE BEST I LOVED IT YOU SHOULD GO THERE! I DON'T REALLY REMEMBER WHY OR ANYTHING THAT I DID BUT IT WAS THE BESSSSTTTT.
And that is the secret of Amsterdam: it's got the reputation as the Vice City capital of Europe for a reason, and your options are limitless! Everything is legal! Except violence/murder/other-things-that-are-not-legal, so don't get it confused with GTA: Vice City, and stay cool. Remember, the locals have to deal with at least one spacecaked-shroomed-out-drunk tourist screaming and running naked through the red light district every day, so don't be that guy.
Anyway, within the parameters of anything, you can probably find something to like in Amsterdam.
Like Art? Do yourself a favor and go see the Van Gogh museum. You'll see lots of pretty colors, and looking at his take on scale and perspective, you may even feel better about yourself as an artist!
Like History? See the highly minimalist Anne Frank House! It's guaranteed to cheer you up about as much as a concentration camp!
Like old buildings? Walk around!
Pro tip: watch out for bikes. They don't break for tourists.
You , too, can go Tourist watching! |
Like really skinny buildings? Well, someone does.
One of the many thinnest buildings in Europe. Rationale? Tax loophole. |
Meeting place for the walking tour. |
Speaking of compensating, you can visit a condomerie, and buy your friends a bewildering array of bad-idea protection!
Insert joke here. |
Like cheese? Go to the Cheese museum, or better yet, just eat a lot of free samples upstairs and skip the museum!
This museum isn't cutting it. |
Like pimped out rides? This one shouldn't be hard to find.
You wish your car had rims like that. |
Like sitting around and relaxing? Amsterdam has many very chill parks. Sitting and taking in the nature on nice sunny days comes highly recommended.
I hear ducks can be really interesting. |
Like boats? Take a canal tour.
Canals: less confusing to navigate around than Venice. |
Like Red Light Districts? You can walk around and see the ladies displaying their wares in windows, but while it is legal and regulated except for problematic problematic human trafficking problematic.
