Part of the pleasure of a visit to Amsterdam is wandering along its canal banks enjoying the view of water traffic and the Dutch-gabled houses that line the neighbouring streets. The city centre is compact and easily navigable on foot but Amsterdam packs a punch when it comes to galleries and museums. Highlights are the world-famous Rijksmuseum, the treasures of the Hermitage Amsterdam and the poignant Anne Frank House. Amsterdam offers an eclectic mix of local and international cuisine but be sure to try a traditional herring sandwich from a street food stall.
