I’ve been to holland main city several times, yet it was always on business and even though I knew the districts, I was not very aware of how charming and impressive this city is if you are with your family and loved ones. Therefore, for our 5th anniversary, I made a decision to take my better half and our little princess on a long weekend in Amsterdam.
I arranged the plane seat tickets and booked a holiday Amsterdam apartment from a web site which I found easy to navigate and easy to book. The vacation Amsterdam getaway residence that I chose was really very carefully chosen, as I required Anna and our child Ellie to be near to the primary points of interest and yet to be able to return to the apartment easily in case they need to.
When we arrived in the main city of Netherlands, we were all happy, as that was our first real family vacation, because until now Ellie was too little to take a trip with us. Thus, we settled in our Amsterdam flat, placed our luggage and were eager to go out again.
The first thing we did on that day was to start on a canal cruise, as the canals in Amsterdam are image of the city that build its romantic appeal, uncovering stunning panoramic scenery. There are a lot of canal cruises available in Amsterdam, but we decided to take a larger charter boat, where we also had the chance to dine.
That afternoon we spend in the old town and the central zone of the city, which are close to our Amsterdam apartment. The centre is compact and is pleasant to explore by walking. It features great architecture which is a fest for the eye, numerous bridges and a great deal of cafes, elegant restaurants and small parks.
