Amsterdam Art and Culture
The city of Amsterdam is an old city that has embraced the new cosmopolitan flair of Europe. The seat of government is in The Hague, but Amsterdam is also thought of as the capital and it is the home of The Netherlands’ royal family. The Dutch are also a cultured people who enjoy the finer things in life when it comes to the arts.
Amsterdam is a city of less than one million residents but has over 50 theatres and movie houses, two ballet troupes, a symphony orchestra, and numerous museums.

Like Riding a Bike – The Amsterdam Way of Life
Over recent years, Amsterdam has proved one of Europe’s most popular short break destinations, and the perfect place to go for a relaxing escape from the tension and stress of city life. And yet, Amsterdam itself is a major city – so what makes it different from other European metropolises? Quite simply, it’s the relaxed approach to life that separates Amsterdam from other European capitals, and what makes Amsterdam the perfect place to go to get away.
This way of life is perhaps symbolised best in Amsterdam’s preferred form of travel: the bicycle. There are apparently more than a million bikes in Amsterdam, and when you consider that the population of the city is estimated at around about the same number, you begin to realise that the natives of the city are serious about being seriously easy-going! And yes, it may require more energy and take more time than driving or taking the tube – but when you’ve got all the time in the world, you can afford to take it!

Holidays to Amsterdam – Affordable and Fun
This year many UK residents will be looking for ways to save money on their holidays, some families are opting for all-inclusive deals to save on money whilst away; some people are holidaying in Britain this time. So either way you cut it us Brits are cutting back on our holidays.
One holiday that is proving popular is the city break except it’s changed slightly; people are now going to European cities for longer stretches of time as they are finding more and more to see and do when away in a new city. There are museums and other tourist attractions but best of all the food is far more varied than the displaced British pub grub found in a Spanish resort.
