No visit to Amsterdam would be complete<br />

without popping into the house where<br />

Rembrandt lived and worked for twenty<br />

years, between 1639 to 1656. The 17th<br />

century Dutch interior has been lovingly<br />

Rembrandt House Museum<br />

and meticulously reconstructed providing<br />

a unique experience of Rembrandt, the<br />

Netherlands' greatest artist. The Museum<br />

also contains an almost complete collection<br />

of etchings by Rembrandt.<br />

Herbal Products<br />

Something you cannot fail to notice are the<br />

numerous shops and cafés pedalling cannabis<br />

in all shapes and forms. Your nose will quickly<br />

tell you when you come across someone<br />

smoking this very pungent weed. The photos<br />

below show some of the products available from<br />

retail outlets if you're of a mind to partake.<br />

The impressive building of the Amsterdam Centraal station which is actually the second<br />

largest railway station of the Netherlands, used by up to 160,000+ passengers a day. The<br />

building was designed by Pierre Cuypers in the Gothic Renaissance Revival style, with the<br />

roof superstructure being of cast iron. The station was first opened in 1889 and quite closely<br />

follows the style of the Rijksmuseum.<br />
