Itinerary
The Open Air Museum in Arnhem is a unique outdoor museum that brings Dutch history to life through authentic buildings, workshops, and demonstrations. You can wander through historic farmhouses, windmills, and villages while learning how people lived and worked in different eras. Craftsmen and actors recreate traditional crafts and daily routines, creating an immersive experience. Surrounded by nature, the museum offers a journey through time that is both educational and enjoyable for all ages.
The war museum aims to give a thorough and personal view of what life was like in Arnhem and the surrounding area during the Second World War, not only focusing on big events like the battle but also on everyday life under occupation. Or visit the Arnhem airborne museum - the very building that served in September 1944 as the headquarters of the British 1st Airborne Division. The museum is dedicated to telling the story of the Battle of Arnhem — its military events, as well as the human impact on soldiers and civilians.

About Amsterdam
Amsterdam rings its golden-age centre with tree-lined canals, gabled houses and bridges, packing great art and easy cycling into a compact city.
The canal ring, dug in the seventeenth century, curves around the old centre in concentric arcs: Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht, lined with tall merchants' houses. The Jordaan, just west, is a maze of small canals, courtyards, brown cafés and independent shops, and the Anne Frank House stands on the Prinsengracht at its edge.
Top-ranked sights in Amsterdam: Amstel River, Skinny Bridge (Magere Brug), Anne Frank House.
