Amsterdam

Why Go?

To see Dutch design, from 17th-century Dutch masters to 21st-century architecture and accessories.

It's not just hookers and pot.

The canals are achingly beautiful.

What to Skip

The entire Damrak, between Centraal Station and Dam Square. If you really want frites stands and sex shops, you can do better elsewhere in town.
