Centrum

The Anne Frank House is the hiding place where Anne Frank wrote her famous diary during World War II. Now a museum, it recreates the war and holocaust years. Quotations from the diary, photographs, films and original objects belonging to the people in hiding and those who helped them all serve to illustrate the events which occurred at this location. Anne's original diary is on display in the museum as well.

You won’t see so many celebrities gathered together anywhere else. From film stars to sporting heroes, from the Golden Age to modern times, national and international artists, Madame Tussauds truly has something for everyone.

Magna Plaza means indoor shopping pleasure in a historical building, right behind the Royal Palace. Built by the end of the 19th century, the former post office of Amsterdam is nowadays an exclusive shopping centre with more than 40 brand stores.

The Hermitage Amsterdam is the Dutch branch of the world-famous Hermitage in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Located on the banks of the Amstel River, the Hermitage Amsterdam is an exhibition space and cultural education centre with a focus on Russian history and culture.

The Koninklijk Paleis (Royal Palace) on Amsterdam’s Dam Square is one of three palaces still in use by the Dutch royal family. When not used for state visits, award ceremonies or other official functions, visitors can explore the magnificent interior and discover the rich history of the building.

Royal Palace Amsterdam

Located in the bustling heart of Amsterdam, the Melkweg, or Milkyway in English, is one of the city's leading entertainment and cultural venues with two halls, a cinema, a theatre, and a cafe with a varied live program, ranging from up-and-coming bands to established names to seated concerts. From the abandoned dairy factory in 1970, this place was then turned into a temporary project, a place for young people to hang out during the summer in 1973. Now it has become one of the most well-known cultural venues. If catching a concert seems a bit out of your price range, or if there is just nobody you would like to see, then visiting one of Melkweg's night clubs might be the thing to do. If you would like to have dinner before your visit, or a drink after the concert? The MILK café is open for lunch and dinner, also for drinks or a nice cup of coffee. Pay attention though, the entrance of MILK is located at Marnixstraat 409.

Melkweg

At Canal Motorboats you can hire a specialised boat for an hour or more. Make your way around the city taking tons of photos and making fantastic memories with friends and family. The company’s marina is just 10 minutes from Central Station and five minutes from the beginning of the Prinsengracht. Each boat can carry up to seven people and naturally larger parties can hire multiple boats.

The Singel Flower Market is one of Amsterdam’s most colourful attractions. The small shops are located inside a row of floating barges – a holdover from the days when flowers arrived in Amsterdam every day from the countryside by boat. At the flower market you’ll find tulips of every colour – either in bouquets or as bulbs to plant at home. If you plan to buy bulbs to take out of the country, be sure they have a "customs cleared" stamp on the packet so you won’t have trouble at the border.
