What could a perfect day in Amsterdam look like? You stroll through the awakening city to Leidseplein, enjoy a royal breakfast in the opulent Art Nouveau setting of Café Americain, and then wander through Vondelpark over to Albert Cuyp Market, where you can find delightful items for little money. After that, you visit the Canal House Museum van Loon to see what Amsterdam merchants spent their money on in the 17th century, and explore the hidden church Ons' Lieve Heer op Solder in the Red Light District. Later, you indulge in the best fries of your life at Vlaams Friethuis Vleminckx, and then head to the dark yet cozy Café De Engelse Reet, where Joseph Roth once enjoyed his genever. If you’re not completely exhausted afterward, you can end the day at REM-eiland – a former offshore platform – with spectacular views.
