The land of bikes
When exploring Amsterdam, it’s not hard to notice the abundance of bikes that fill the streets, either locked around light poles or bike racks or being rode along one of the many bike paths that have a stance on all Amsterdam roads. It took me a while to remember there were separate paths for pedestrians and bikes, coming close to being hit more than once!
We enjoyed savoury pancakes, the numerous clogs on display in souvenir stores and explored Museumplein, Van Gogh Museum, Westerkerk Cathedral, Amsterdam Palace, National Monument, the Red Light District, Beurs van Berlage, St Nicholas Kerk, New Markt and an afternoon lie down in Vondelpark.
