About Amsterdam

<p>Amsterdam, the capital city of the <a href="https://www.routeperfect.com/Netherlands">Netherlands</a>, boasts a captivating history that dates back to its 12th century beginnings as a modest fishing village. Over time, the city flourished into a bustling commercial center, and, by the 17th century, played a pivotal role in global trade. The establishment of the Dutch East India Company during the colonial era further fueled periods of prosperity, cultural blossoming, and architectural advancement. The city's charm has remained as vibrant as ever, offering modern-day tourists a dynamic and multicultural hub in a wonderful atmosphere, surrounded by a unique, impressive architectural maze.</p>

The Groote Kerk, built 1452–1560, lost most of its tower during World War II, of which a part has been reconstructed to a modern design and opened in 1964. The house of Maarten van Rossum has been the town hall since 1830: The satyrs in its Renaissance ornamentation earned it the name Duivelshuis ("devil's house"). The Netherlands Open Air Museum is located outside the city. It includes antique houses, farms, and factories from different parts of the Netherlands.
