Secret Amsterdam

Discover the historic location of Rembrandt's famous "Night Watch", the origin of the invention of cognac, and an homage to prostitutes. Decypher gable stones, make love quite legally in the open air, visit magnificent interior courtyards, ski in the heart of the town, or become an adept of the "boat-in" - the Amsterdam version of the "drive-in" - and eat a pizza in your own boat. Away from the crowds and the stereotypes, Amsterdam still keeps her treasures so well hidden that they only reveal themselves to the inhabitants and to travellers who know how to wander off the beaten track. An indispensable guide for those who think they know The Netherlands capital well or for those who want to discover the other face of the town.
