With some 8,000 historic sights and 40 museums, not to mention 160 canals, over 1,200 bridges, and countless intriguing streets to wander, visitors to Amsterdam are never without something interesting to do. And because of Amsterdam’s long running history as a major port, it is one of the most eclectic cities in the world in terms of dining. You can find traditional Dutch fare (which is a mixed, somewhat indefinable, bag in and of itself), as well as every other type of cuisine under the sun.
