Zaanse Schans

生长在海边的果果
The windmill with Dutch characteristics must be seen. Some distance from the city of Am by train. There is a windmill that costs 6 euros to enter the interior to visit. It was not good to go to the day and it was cold. . The last stop in Lego Town, you can see it at the same time.
Van Gogh Museum

The Van Gogh Museum is a place worth visiting, showing Van Gogh's life and artistic achievements, you can understand the genius more deeply! The museum shows many of Van Gogh's real works, especially suitable for bringing children. The museum's facilities are also very good, and the audio guide helps to understand the background of Van Gogh's paintings, but it is not particularly detailed, and I hope it can be improved in the future.

Rembrandt's night tour is being restored, followed by the niece of art and many famous Dutch painters, I wore a lecturer to carefully enjoy each work, the National Museum has a lot of collections, like people to set aside enough time
Wooden Shoe Workshop of Zaanse Schans

E22***58
In the Zaanse Schans windmill village, which is only half an hour away from Amsterdam by train, there is a Dutch wooden shoe museum. The museum is open to the public free of charge and displays many designs of Dutch wooden shoes, far more than the most common styles. There are also regular performances and interactions on making wooden shoes, allowing you to have a deeper understanding of the history and production methods of this traditional wooden shoe. It is a very good attraction. You can also pay attention to a pair of treasures inlaid with diamonds.

Royal Palace Amsterdam

吃喝玩乐记🍸🍸
The Amsterdam Palace is a magnificent building on the Dam Square in Amsterdam City Centre, the Netherlands. Here are some of the main attractions about it: 1. Historical background: The Amsterdam Palace was originally built as a city hall and was built in 1648. Designed by architect Jacob van Campen (Jacob van Campen), it was unveiled on July 20, 1655. In 1807 after the Napoleonic Wars, Louis Napoleon, the younger brother of the French emperor, moved here and changed it to a royal palace. In 1813, Prince William (later King William I) returned the palace to Amsterdam, and it became the residence of the King of the Netherlands. 2. Architectural wonders: the stone foundations of the palace are supported by 13,659 wooden stakes, which are known as the "eighth largest architectural wonders in the world". 3. Interior decoration: The interior of the palace is gorgeously decorated, and many decorations and artworks are made by famous people such as Rembrandt and Ferdinand Pol (Ferdinand Bol). Themes are mostly about the great Amsterdam and the Dutch Republic, such as the relief of the main triangular wall depicting Amsterdam as the ruler of the sea. Royal Furniture and Artwork: The interior is decorated with French First Empire style furniture and is a relic of Louis Bonaparte, the first king of the Netherlands. The palace has a large collection of art and cultural works, including works by Rembrandt, Ferdinand Burr and Govit Flink. Modern function: The palace is not only an office palace, used for official reception, state visits and awards ceremonies, but also open to the public for visitors to see its rich history and architectural beauty. 6. Opening hours and tickets: The palace is open to the public all year round, usually from 10 am to 5 pm, the ticket price is about12.50 euros for adults,10.00 euros for students, and free for children under 18 years old. 7. Attractions: When visiting the Royal Palace of Amsterdam, you can also explore the nearby Nieuwe Kerk, Madame Tussauds Amsterdam, and the Amsterdam Museum. The Palace of Amsterdam is not only a historical symbol of the Netherlands, but also a treasure trove of art and culture, worthy of every visitor's taste.

We went there a little late, I forgot whether it was the last day or the second to last day, and I didn’t get to see large tracts of sea of ​​flowers, but I still saw some tulips, which was very satisfying. It would have been even better if I had come during the flowering season!

Entry is free which could explain why it was so packed when we went. There’s a cheese making demonstration every half hour or so which was very interesting. There were a lot of sample to try also!
