It's an exceptionally photogenic city, with colourful opportunities for "Street" and "Urban Landscape" photography around every corner. The Flowermarket, the Leidseplein, the museums of Modern Art, Van Gogh and the Rijksmuseeum, the Concertgeboouw ... the canals, the docks (Amsterdam is a deep water port connected to the ocean via the Nordsee Canal ... plus draught Amstel beer, Dutch pancakes, the rijstaafel, the widest selection of international cuisine in any European city except London, the art nouveau/art deco cafe at the American Hotel ... the trams, the canals (again), the bridges, the trams (again) .... No, I can't imagine why anyone would want to go there! ;-)
