AMSTERDAM

THAT city perilously below sea-level where stuff that's illegal elsewhere in the world is perfectly fine: be it cannabis in coffee shops or women strutting themselves on windows. That city where almost everyone has a cycle -- each a little different from the other. 



IF you're in Amsterdam for a small time but want see the entire city at one glance visit Madurodam: a model city created by the Dutch to resemble Amsterdam where everything is exactly 25 times smaller than in reality. This 'city' even has a mayor and with some loose change you can set cars and other stuff into motion.

AN example of spectacular Dutch architecture: multi-storeyed buildings built atop bridges. 


10.00 PM in Amsterdam: Sunset is at 10.30 at night and the sun rises around 5 in the morning. not just in Amsterdam, everywhere i went in Europe.


NOT some acrobat, just an ordinary Dutch woman on an extraordinary cycle.
