Rijksmuseum

Hobbemakade, 1071 ZC Amsterdam

About

The largest and most prestigious museum for art and history in the Netherlands: works by Vermeer, Rembrandt, and other Dutch masters. Its garden has a curious collection of architecture and has free entrance during museum opening times. Recommend getting there early to avoid long queues and crowds, then head first for the second floor to see the Rembrandt classics and others such as Avercamp's Winter Landscape with Skaters.

    Most accepting city Ive been to

    Amsterdam lives up to its reputation. As a gay man I felt completly accepted everywhere not just in the gay bars. The Dutch are very direct which can seem rude at first but its actually refreshing. The Anne Frank museum is a must (book weeks in advance). Renting a bike is the way to go but be careful the cyclists there are aggresive lol.

    La liberté à l'état pur

    Amsterdam est probablement la ville la plus tolérante du monde. En tant qu'homme gay, je me suis senti complètement libre. Le quartier du Reguliersdwarsstraat est le coeur de la scène LGBT. Les musées (Van Gogh, Rijksmuseum) sont excellents. Le vélo est le meilleur moyen de transport. Seul point négatif : les prix sont élevés.
