Amsterdam, part 4

It wasn't all beer and canals, though. We did manage to take in some great culture. I'm pretty sure we visited the Van Gogh Museum (I have a picture of it), and I know we went to the Rijksmuseum (featuring "a magnificent selection of Dutch paintings from the Golden Age") and the Anne Frank House, which was really amazing. No photos allowed inside, unfortunately.

The city had a general arts district, which was gorgeous to just walk around.




The Van Gogh Museum:




The wonderful, extensive, expansive, and exhaustive Rijksmuseum, including a grainy photo of "The Night Watch," one of Rembrandt's most famous works; so famous that the museum dedicates an entire room and light show to it.





The Anne Frank House; remodeled, obviously:
