Happy birthday, #Amsterdam! The city celebrates 745 years of history, culture and innovation today. After all this time, it's still a sight for sore eyes! ๐๐๐ฅณ
Today Amsterdam turns 744 (we are old!) From a little fishing village named โAemstelredammeโ to one of the most beautiful, diverse and welcoming cities on earth, it's another year that we can say we're so proud of our wonderful home and the people who help make it what it is!
743 years ago today โAemstelredammeโ was founded in the Netherlands. Little did the villagers know then that their little settlement would grow into one of the most prosperous cities on earth. A big happy birthday to our wonderful home and the people who help make it what it is!
Vincent van Gogh died 129 years ago today. It was a day that we lost one of the most inspiring, creative artists to have ever lived. We can think of no better way to remember him than with these images of the time @vangoghmuseum planted 125,000 sunflowers in our beautiful city.
Today's the day when Amsterdam's canals are filled with a ๐ of colour as a floatilla of spectacular boats takes part in the city's world-famous @amsterdampride Canal Parade!
