CityBest April – June, September – October
Amsterdam
A city best seen from a bicycle, ten or fifteen minutes past wherever the canal-ring crowds thin out.
The canal ring is beautiful and everyone photographs it from the same three bridges. A short ride east or south, the city stops performing for visitors and gets on with being a place people actually live.
