Amsterdam is a melting pot of cultures. There's so much to see and do in Amsterdam that it's hard to know where to begin. There are several museums, my favorite is still the Rijks Museum. Now that it's been reopened and the construction is complete, it's worth another visit! It's filled with the Dutch masters, but I especially enjoyed the way they refreshed the placement of the paintings.
Let's start with a boat ride around town. After all, that's the best way to see the sites, unless your adventurous enough to rent a bike?

Shopping: Looking for a nice souvenir to bring back home and can't afford the Diamond district? I would recommend picking up a piece of the blue pottery called, Delftware. It's pricey, but very beautiful and will make a unique gift.
Restaurants: When I'm in Amsterdam I want fish. We received two recommendations from locals: Lucius and Visaandeschelde. We've been to Lucius before so we tried out Visaandeschelde. So glad that we did because we had an amazing meal and the perfect customer service experience from our waitress. I highly recommend this restaurant, but MAKE RESERVATIONS as it's popular with the locals.
This is the end of our Romantic Rhine Series. We hope that you enjoyed it. The next series will be on Ireland.
Happy Traveling!
