Best time to Visit Amsterdam
Thanks to its mild climate, Amsterdam is a year-round destination, so you can plan a trip at any time of the year. However, the peak tourist season is April-May and September-November. During these months, the weather remains at its best and is suitable for sightseeing and other outdoor activities.
Must-visit Places in Amsterdam
Here are some of the major tourist attractions that you should include in your travel itinerary while booking an Amsterdam trip package:
Anne Frank House
A trip to Amsterdam cannot be complete without visiting this place. Anne Frank was a little Jewish girl who was a victim of the Holocaust during the Second World War. Anne and her family went into hiding for two years to avoid Nazi persecution, and she used to keep a diary of her experiences during that time. Later, that documentation got published as a book named ‘The Diary of a Young Girl’. She lived in the same house for those two years. Currently, it is one of the major tourist attractions in Amsterdam. This building also houses a museum where you can get a glimpse into her life.
Van Gogh Museum
If you are an art enthusiast and want to see some of the finest art pieces, this museum is a great pick. This is also one of the most famous museums in the entire Netherlands and is visited by approximately 1.5 million visitors in a year. Here, you will get to see more than 200 paintings, 500 drawings, and 700 letters from Van Gogh. All these things will give you enough idea about Van Gogh’s life and his artistic capabilities.
Vondel Park
Vondel Park is one of the most famous parks in Amsterdam. It allures thousands of visitors every day and is equally popular among tourists and locals. This park is also home to some of the best restaurants and cafes in the city, including the Blauwe Theehuis, Cafe Vertigo, Vondelpark 3, etc. Other than this, this park also has an open-air theatre and a famous rose garden, which is known for having more than 70 types of roses in the park. In short, this is one of the best places to go in Amsterdam.
Red Light District
There is no denying the fact that Amsterdam is famous for having so many scenic places that you can explore throughout the day. However, the city is also known for its lively nightlife. Home to a number of amazing pubs and other party places, the Red Light District is absolutely a paradise for young people. Here, you get the chance to be a part of some of the most lavish parties in town. Whether you just want to enjoy the ambience or plan to dance the night away, this is just the right place to be.
EYE-Film Museum
This is one of the most interesting places to visit in Amsterdam. This awe-inspiring museum is housed in a building that resembles a spaceship and is located on the main waterfront of the city. This is an important place for the Dutch film industry, as several film screenings are organised here. If you are someone with an interest in films, this is a place that you shouldn’t miss.
Flower Market
Locally known as the Bloemenmarkt, this is another addition to the list of must-visit places in Amsterdam. Located along the Singel Canal, this place can instantly lift anyone’s mood, as beautiful, fresh flowers are all you can see around you. Although you can find different types of beautiful flowers here, tulips are among the most common ones.
Canal Belt
Built in the 17th century, this is one of the most beautiful neighbourhoods in the city. The Canal Belt is an area that is home to a number of old, rustic houses and quaint cafes. In 2011, it was also placed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Here, you can choose to explore the gorgeous canals of Amsterdam by taking a boat ride.
