I like Amsterdam

[Roddick]

Amsterdam is one of the coolest cities in Europe. Beautiful, hip, and laid back, with lots to do, lots to see, many pubs, food from all over the world and friendly people. A visit to this very beautiful city is sometimes like taking a walk in the 17th century, as the center of Amsterdam has a lot of charming architecture dating from this period. This is an excellent city to tour on foot or bicycle. However, while Amsterdam may boast a lot of 17th century architecture, that's about all that's old fashioned about the place.

In summer one of the best places to go for a relaxing afternoon is the Vondelpark. It is a great park, right in the center of things and very lively. With a bit of luck you can catch a (free) outdoor concert near the water. There are also a few trendy places in the park where you can sit and have a beer, such as the Blauwe Theehuis.

I have never been in amsterdam but I would love to have some time and visit if only for a weekend. Anyway I have heard many things about holland both positive and negative. But the negative ones isnt anything im concerned about.

Yea laid back people and a different kind of culture than you see in other european countries.

Amsterdam is very wonderful. I loved the fact that you could get anywhere by bike and that the city was so bicycle-friendly. I have never seen such a bicycle-friendly city in my life. The red-light district is definitely worth a visit and I am not talking about being a customer and going there but going there just because it is a very unique experience. I am not sure if I agree with the legalization of prostitution and drugs but it is definitely quite an experience to see it all out in the open. This stuff usually happens behind closed doors in other countries. I would like to go back and visit the tulip fields. Since the city is so small I hear you can take a bike out to the fields and it only takes around 30 minutes.
