  • Visit the Madame Tussaud's wax museum.

    In this museum you can see many wax statues of well-known Dutch people. Besides them you also see European or American celebrities.

    Some of the statues are from Vincent van Gogh, Nelson Mandela, Tina Turner and Ghandi.

  • Do some shopping in Magna Plaza.

    This four storeyed shopping center is the most beautiful one in Amsterdam. I really like the record shop in the basement of the building. The collection of CD's is very huge and you always can find something of your choice.

  • One of the places you have to visit when you're in Amsterdam is the Royal Palace.

    The Royal Palace, which is built in the 17th century as a town hall. It is interesting because you can see paintings of several famous Dutch painters. Besides this the architecture of the building is very interesting

    In the Palace are also some other exhibitions to see which change now and then.

    By the way the Dutch Royal family isn't living in this building; they live in The Hague.

    Directions: You can find the Royal Palace on the Dam square and it's only a five minute walk from Central Station.
