Amsterdam, The Netherlands


wiki informs...
Amsterdam is the capital and the largest city of The Netherlands. Its name is derived from Amstel dam,[6] pointing to the city's origin: a dam on the river Amstel. The city is known for its historic port, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, its red-light district, its liberal coffee shop policy, and its many canals which have led to Amsterdam being called the "Venice of the North".
