Amsterdam Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Amsterdam has all the items kids conjure up when they think of Holland—windmills, wooden shoes (clogs), canals, and tulips. The city also blooms with lots more: world-class and specialty museums, a palace, art, and a bicycle culture that's fun to join.
