Amsterdam trip 2013

Amsterdam is the Netherlands capital known for its artistic heritage, elaborate canal system and narrow houses with gabled facades, legacies of the city’s 17^th century golden age. Its museum district houses the Van Gogh museum, works by Rambrandt and Vermeer at the Rijksmuseum, and modern art at the Stadelijk.  Cycling is the key to to the City’s character  and there are numerous bike paths.

In June 2013, I along with my family took a trip to Amsterdam. We took the emirates flight from Kuwait at 3 am in the morning and reached Dubai at 5.30 am in the morning. We had 2 hours transit in Dubai and we took the connecting flight to Amsterdam at 7.30 am in the morning. We reached Amsterdam at 12.30 pm at noon. When we were on our way to the hotel, dad told us that all the company partners go for work by cycle. . In Amsterdam, We stayed in Radisson blu hotel. After our check inn, we cruised the Amsterdam canal which was an hours ride. We saw so many houses near the canal banks. We saw the Amsterdam canal bridge.  Then next day in the morning, we did the Van Gogh museum and we saw so many types of diffferent paintings of Van Gogh. After that, we did the Amsterdam museum and we saw the miniature of Amsterdam.

The next day, we visited Victoria Market in Amsterdam and then after that we visited the Amsterdam cafe for a cup of coffee and i ordered a caffe latte. It was piping hot and amazing. After that i did the rijksmuseum. From there we took the tram to the heinikan experience When we entered the heinikan, we were given a wrist band. Without the wrist band, you cant enter the heinikan.  Then we did the simulator ride. Inside, the simulator ride, there was a tv screen with a man inside explaining about heinikan and the thing started shaking. Then we felt like we were jumping inside the water and the next moment, we were bottled and capped. So, like that we saw how the heinikan beer were made. After that we got outside the simulator. Then we explored the heinikan brewery and we saw couple of large barrels in which they make the beer,  Then they guided us to the heiniken bar, where they give samples of beer in a mug.  All of us bought a mug also drilled in our names.  These are my memories of Amsterdam trip....
