  • Amsterdam: the place to be

The Dutch capital Amsterdam is open-minded, unique and a bit stubborn. Narrow houses that exude history through their crooked and diverse constructions, canals, bridges here and there. But you also see and feel innovation and energy. Modern districts, hip cafes and exuberant festivals. A metropolis full of history and vibrant culture.

Amsterdam is politically and economically stable, which means that you can attend an event and travel without risk. The city ranks high in the global safety index and is known as the safest capital in Europe.

The city center of Amsterdam can be reached in 15 minutes from Schiphol Airport. Public transport works smoothly, both towards and from the city.

The website of I Amsterdam Visitor Center (in English) is a good starting point for your trip te Amsterdam.
