City Breaks to Amsterdam - By: Asifkhan

Amsterdam hardly ever makes the grade in anyone's hit list of Europe's top romantic cities. Paris, Rome, Venice - even London - are likely to leave the Dutch capital in the shade. Some frown on Amsterdam's links with red light sleaze and its drug smoking 'coffee shops'. Others may think Amsterdam just a little too dull for a decent city break. Whatever the reasons, when a romantic weekend city break is on the cards, Amsterdam rarely turns up trumps.

An Amsterdam city breaks is just the holiday ticket for all ages and all tastes. Whether it's cultural high from its world class museums or another sort of high from the city's notorious 'coffeeshops', Amsterdam is a city you can't help but enjoy. Amsterdam is one of Europe's top city break holiday destinations thanks to a unique mix of high art and low life, from cultural capital to cannabis capital it has so much going for it, it's hard to know where to start.

Amsterdam is a friendly, welcoming city that tourists usually remember most for its warm hospitality. They are also likely to remember how they spent many joyful hours wandering along the canals, admiring buildings, monuments and canal bridges without worrying too much about what or where to visit next. Amsterdam is that kind of place and needs no set travel itinerary to make it enjoyable.

Sights to see in the city are, not surprisingly, the countless galleries and museums, where one can find the works of art of the Dutch Masters, such as Vincent van Gogh and Rembrandt van Rijn. And when you're not into museums and galleries really, step on a canal boat and sail through the many canals of the city. I suggest you take the tour during the night, so it's possible to enjoy the lights of the city center.

Enjoying an Amsterdam city break has never been easier. There is a great choice of cheap flights to Amsterdam from most UK airports and a wide range of hotels from luxury to budget accommodation. You can even book a room at a floating hotel or a canal boat. Book online and open the gates to discount airfares and cheap flights plus many holiday hotel packages that offer cheap breaks in Amsterdam.
