  • Why Amsterdam is So Popular

2
  • Amsterdam is a feat of ingenuity and still
    crackles with the ambition, cultural tolerance,
    and enterprise that drove the 17th-century Golden
    Age when the Netherlands led the world in trade,
    maritime power, culture, and economic might. This
    is the city of Rembrandt, Anne Frank, the Red
    Light District, Johan Cruyff, and the Dutch East
    and West India Companies theres a world of
    fascinating stories, spellbinding art, and
    architecture that has stood the test of time.
    Here is the list of some Reasons why Amsterdam is
    famous.

List of Reasons why Amsterdam is so Famous
  •  Pancakes
  • Dutch pancakes are big and thin - somewhat of a
    thicker crepe - and the combinations of toppings
    are what make them so unique. They have the
    classic, sweet, and savory toppings.

  • Canal houses
  • Along the canals, which is pretty much every
    street in Amsterdam, you have the classic
    Amsterdam canal houses that are so old,
    historical and picturesque. The houses are tall
    and narrow, which isn't just so they look nice -
    back when they were building them, they were
    taxed on the width of the houses, so they are all
    very narrow and instead have great depth and
    height. Pretty interesting.

5
  •  Cheese
  • Tourist activity in Amsterdam is to taste Dutch
    cheeses at every local shop you walk by. Okay, so
    maybe not All tourists do it, but it was
    certainly a tourist activity for us. We'd like to
    think that everyone visiting Amsterdam enjoyed
    the cheese as much as we do - cheese shops are on
    every corner and all of them offer samples of as
    many cheeses as you want and as big a piece as
    you want.
