Organizing Flights To Amsterdam?
Organizing Flights To Amsterdam?

One of the countries I'd like to go and see is Amsterdam. As soon as I have saved enough money I will be booking flights to Amsterdam for both myself and my husband. Precisely why flights to Amsterdam you may well ask? There are a variety of things I would like to go and discover there.

I would like to go investigate the Rijks Museum. This particular museum contains a lot of works of well-known Dutch painters such as Rembrandt. I would be especially enthusiastic about his "The Nightwatch". This painting has been discussed for a long time, yet no one really knows what Rembrandt intended when he painted that. The painting is a national icon for the Dutch and also a true national treasure. The Rijks Museum is also home to one of the most intricate and extensive doll houses ever constructed. It had been commissioned by a wealthy lady to be a hobby, an extremely expensive hobby as she spent tens of thousands of guilders into it and had every item constructed to scale.

One more place I might have to leave time for in organizing my flights to Amsterdam is Madame Tussauds. Madame Tussauds contains the most lifelike wax figurines available of well-known figures, from royals to sports stars to actors and musicians. It is almost like seeing them in the real world.

Then there is the Amsterdam dungeon. This is a theatre which portrays re-enactments of things such as life throughout the plague, Rembrandt's life, or scenes in the doings of Peter Titelmann. It has to be quite some thing to see this first hand but at a safer century.

Aside from these major points of interest would be the churches which date back to the fifteenth century, a variety of castle as well as other fortifications which were a part of the original town's defences from the fifteenth century.

And of course, the red light district. No visit to Amsterdam could be complete with out a night visiting the red light district. That is about the only place in the entire world where lots of things generally considered illegal are legal and managed by the government. Things legal in the red light district are against the law even in the remainder of Amsterdam!

I might have to plan my flights to Amsterdam to fall in November, just to see the cannabis Cup, an annual cannabis competition that only takes place in Amsterdam where judges choose which strain of cannabis is best.

Yes, my mind is made up. I need to organise flights to Amsterdam for myself and my hubby during the not too distant future. It seems like an amazing country to visit with a lot of old culture intermingling with brand new in a vibrant splash of colour. There's so much to discover and so much to do that I may have to book a couple of weeks stay to manage to have everything done that I would like to get done. Amsterdam may not be for the faint hearted, but it's definitely for those who love art, architecture and culture. Amsterdam, ready or not, here I come!
