Amsterdam is the Netherlands’ capital, known for its artistic heritage, elaborate canal system, and narrow houses with gabled facades, legacies of the city’s 17th-century Golden Age. Its Museum District houses the Van Gogh Museum, works by Rembrandt and Vermeer at the Rijksmuseum, and modern art at the Stedelijk. Cycling is key to the city’s character, and there are numerous bike paths. Amsterdam is famous for its canals, beautiful houses, ‘coffee’ shops, and Red Light District, but there’s plenty more to this liberal city than most visitors realize. Amsterdam is one of the 10 most expensive places to live in Europe. So yes, Amsterdam is definitely not cheap to live in. Especially ‘Binnen de ring’ (in the most central neighborhoods) prices could be double or triple compared with places in for example Friesland or Limburg.
