Amsterdam- A picturesque capital city

The most picturesque place I have ever been to is Amsterdam. With a population of 800,000 inhabitants it is the most densely populated city located in the Netherlands. Swift-flowing streams, which run through the city, present a charming flait, comparable with Venice. Additionally, numerous bridges and canals give expression to the place. At all events it is worthwhile to going on a cruise and to tour through the numerous canals because it is exhilarating to feel the wind blowing at one's back. By cruising around, there is the best opportunity for breathtaking views towards impressive structures, too. For instance, the capital city is surrounded by unique buildings with artistic ornementations as well as famous for its exceptional house constructions. Dutch houses consist of redbrick, are narrow and high with multible stories and sometimes even lopsided because in the Middle Ages houses near the stream, were built on stakes. Simply amazing! For allowing as much sunlight as possible, many houses features big windows with shutters all over the facade which seems very unique. In my opinion, Amsterdam is a stunning place, full of ancient grand architecture-simply picturesque.
