I will be there two days. Any recommendations?

Hi<BR><BR>There are wonderful museums.<BR><BR>But if you want something, shall we say, a little more interesting, wander round the canals down from Central Station and to your left.<BR><BR>Er, or so I understand !<BR><BR>Peter<BR>

Michelle, if you are into art, the Van Gogh Museum is a must. The Rijksmuseum has so much more than paintings, we found the furniture fascinating. A canal boat tour is a must... and a stroll around the Jordaan is lovely. Your second trip will be even more fun! Have a grand time!

Wandering around & getting lost in The Jordaan.<BR><BR>Have fun!

The eel sandwiches sold by street carts are not to be missed (look for 'paling').

If the weather's nice - Vondelpark.<BR><BR>For restaurants, nightlife, street performers, coffeeshops - Leidseplein.<BR><BR>For a hot dinner spot - The Supper Club.

All of the above are great ideas, but don't forget to include Anne Frank's House - much more than a museum. If you're adventurous with food, try an indonesian restaurant or go into one of their delis/cheese stores (can't you tell I'm from New York) to see & sample some cheeses that never make it to the US. I also love their candy stores - I've never seen so many different kinds of licorice (sweet, salty, double salty - they call them dropjes) in my life. You didn't say when you would be there, but I've visited Amsterdam 3 times and have never tired of strolling around the streets/canals and popping into their little shops. The Jordaan area has some lovely brown cafes and restaurants.
