Amsterdam After Dark: Canals, Coffeeshops and Freedom

descriptionDescription

Amsterdam by night is a different city. The canals light up with the glow of the historic buildings, the coffeeshops show their most social side and the clubs of the Arena Boulevard rival those of Berlin. The Jordaan district, with its dark pubs and live music, offers the perfect prelude before heading to a club. Rembrandtplein draws visitors from all over Europe with its terraces and electronic music clubs. The Red Light District is interesting to explore with moderation. After 10 p.m. the city truly comes to life: the clubs open their doors and electronic music floods the canals. The system of illuminated canals creates a romantic atmosphere for those who prefer a quieter evening. Amsterdam combines the historic and the modern, the warm and the intense, the natural and the urban.
