A wind turbine nearby to a factory at the Amsterdam suburb (do you know that companies such as Unilever, Heineken, Shell and Philips originated from this country?) It is the 16th largest economy in the world. |
Me at the Amsterdam Centraal (Central Station). The station was opened in 1889. |
|
People parked their bicycles outside the Amsterdam Centraal station to commute to work |
A very mini car! |
|
Me at the statue of Prins Hendrik der Nederlanden (Prince Henry of the Netherlands) 1820-1879 in central Amsterdam |
Walking around the red light district in Amsterdam (I found out that gay marriage is actually legal in the Netherlands!). Other liberal policies include drugs is not a crime and euthanasia is also legal. |
|
One of the famous city canals in Amsterdam (do you know that 50% of the land area in the Netherlands are less than 1 meter above the sea level?) |
What a mini lorry van! Made of a scooter perhaps! |
|
A nice spot to take a picture...! |
Cruising along the Amsterdam canals |
|
A parking complex for ....? |
Bicycles! Yes, thousands of people park their bicycles in this central cycle park building and they cycle around the city to work! No traffic jam! |
