AMSTERDAM
Vol. 12, No. 3 The Netherlands
January / February 2007
Whether you prefer biking along its picturesque canals, admiring its many masterpieces by Rembrandt and Van Gogh, or simply gazing up at its magnificent gabled houses from a glass-covered boat, this issue has everything needed to plan the perfect trip. The four major canals are, by far, the best known, but Amsterdam has hundreds of small, intersecting canals and tiny stone bridges honeycombing the city. These long, narrow waterways are lined along both sides with the magnificent 17th and 18th century gabled houses for which the city is known. These beautiful gabled buildings now house the city’s many wonderful hotels, museums, restaurants and shops. How do you find the most charming small hotel with the romantic view (and which room is the best to request?), the tiny café with the picturesque setting and the intimate restaurant with the fine menu? And, which of the city’s many historic sights should not be missed. We traveled to Amsterdam anonymously to find out! The issue also features valuable travel tips for navigating the city and popular day trips, including Keukenhof Gardens, Het Loo Palace, Haarlem, Delft and Den Haag. Subscribers may also want to consider the issue on nearby Bruges, and perhaps even Paris and Paris Day Trips (since Paris is just under three hours from Amsterdam on the fast train).
Special Note: Photos in printed issues are not in color. Back issues are non-refundable.
