Whether you want to discover the many attractions, shop till you drop in the many stores or lay back and relax on a canal boat trip, you definitely won't get bored here. Every year, more than 50 museums with may world renowned paintings, drawings and sculptures attract thousands of visitors. In the summertime, the action moves out on to the street.
