Amsterdam Areas
Amsterdam is world famous, but still a small city. All the areas bounded by the ring road are accessible by bike within 45 minutes. The typical cityscape of Amsterdam is created by the canals around the old center. The canal belt and the old city center are very popular because of the variety of museums and attractions in this area, but there is much more to discover in the other areas of Amsterdam besides the old city center. Each neighborhood has its own special character and offers plenty of sights and attractions. If you have some time to spend in Amsterdam, visit one of the other neighborhoods and explore a different Amsterdam.
