We set off from London across the English Channel, through France and Belgium to the capital of The Netherlands, Amsterdam.
The streetscape includes elegant buildings with grand architecture, extensive canals and bicycles everywhere - there are more bicycles than people in this city!
The Dutch are renowned for being fairly liberal, and it is quite odd when you walk past the ancient Catholic Church in the heart of the red light district, where there are ladies in their famous red windows across the street and a kindergarten next door. This same church is the only one in the world to have funded statues celebrating prostitution and homosexuality that are also within in the City.
Highlights:
- Walking tour of the Red Light District
- "Coffee" shops
- Cheese and clog factory (strangely, made in the same place...)
- Heineken beer factory tour
- Shooter bar, with a menu of 250+ shots
