AMSTERDAM

I went on a Europe tour with my family and my best friend Vedi's

family in April 2019. We were very excited to visit Europe

together. Our main source of travel was our tour bus. We visited

France, Switzerland, London, Venice, Rome, Amsterdam and our

last destination Germany. Out of all these places, Amsterdam was

definitely my favorite. Amsterdam is the breathtaking capital of the

Netherlands. It is situated quite away from the tourist-filled areas,

and is a relaxed, family-friendly place. The city is very safe, but in

some areas bike thefts are common.

TASTY STREET FOOD

The tasty street food of Amsterdam is simply delicious.

There are quite a lot of delicacies like Stoopwafel, Satay,

Mint tea, Cod etc. But my favourites are Poffertjes (mini-

Dutch pancakes come covered in sweet sugar syrup) and

Bitterballen (ground meat croquettes).

KEUKENHOF

The famous Keukenhof Gardens are one of the most beautiful places in the

world. Open for just eight weeks each year, the Keukenhof boasts an

astonishing seven million blooms.

MADAME TUSSAUDS

Madame Tussauds Amsterdam is a wax museum situated in Amsterdam, the capital

city of the Netherlands.
