About Amsterdam

Amsterdam grew from a medieval fishing dam into one of the world's most beloved cities, its Golden Age merchants building the elegant canal ring that still curves through the heart of the city today. Thousands of narrow gabled houses lean gently over the water, their facades hoisted high with beam and pulley, each one a quiet record of the ambition and craft of the people who built them. On any given morning, the canals shimmer with the reflections of houseboats and arched bridges while cyclists weave past flower stalls heavy with tulips in every shade of the Dutch countryside.
