Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, is located on the western North Sea coast and is known as the "Venice of the North" for its crisscrossing network of canals. The city has more than 1,000 bridges and its 17th-century canal belt is a World Heritage Site. As the largest city in the Netherlands, Amsterdam blends history and modernity: cycling is the main mode of transportation, street art and museums (e.g. Van Gogh Museum, Anne's House) are intertwined, and the multicultural and liberal atmosphere attracts tourists from all over the world. In addition, its unique café culture, red light district (De Wallen) and open social attitudes make it one of the most vibrant cities in Europe.
