Organized, inviting, friendly and classic-all describe the city and its people. Steeped in culture and the arts Amsterdam is well known for its impressive architecture, beautiful canals and waterways, spectacular parks and pubic places and its fine food and drink.
But, why settle for the standard tourist fare when with a little initiative and with the help of a guide you find hidden gems and attractions?
Secret Amsterdam, written by Marjolijn Van Eys and Delphine Mousseau and published by Jonglez Publishing, offers a local guide to Ansterdam people and places.
Walk along the waterways, dine at a small mom and pop restauranst, grab a snack of fish and fries, chat with the locals (surprise they also speak English), check out the shops, marvel at the impressive museums and enjoy the smooth running public transportation and emaculate city.
Thirsty? Discover where cognac was invited, check out and esoteric library, ski in the heart of the town, marvel at a floating neighborhood and take part in a ‘boat-in’.
Get away from the crowds, visit well hidden locations, see and do what locals do and immerse yourself in the ‘feel’ of the city.
Amsterdam is both conventional and unconventional. It’s easy to settle in yet there are some surprises. Revel in the differences and broaden your horizons.
Filled with fascinating text and color photos Secret Amsterdam is the perfect guide to The Venice Of The North.
"And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love.
Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them." — 1 John 4:16
