Amsterdam is in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. However, it is not the seat of the government, which is The Hague. It has a rich artistic heritage and an elaborate canal system. Indeed, these are lined with narrow houses with gabled facades dating back to the city’s 17th-century Golden Age.
Indeed, the name Amsterdam comes from Amstelredamme, which roughly translates into a dam on the river Amstel, where this city’s roots are located in the 12th century.
Some famous residents of Amsterdam include the diarist Anne Frank, artists Rembrandt van Rijn and Vincent van Gogh, as well as philosopher Baruch Spinoza. As a matter of fact, you will encounter elements of their past along this Tourist Scavenger Hunt.
Today, Amsterdam is home to almost 2.5 million people when considering its larger metropolitan area, but only 850,000 in the city proper.
