Amsterdam City Centre in Winter (????Binaural 3D Audio) - ???????? Netherlands - 4K Virtual Tour
Amazing beautiful 4K Virtual Tour of Amsterdam City Centre during winter time on the 30th of December. Click here ▶ to see highlights and guide.
(From Wiki):
Amsterdam is the capital and most populous city of the Netherlands; with a population of 866,737 within the city proper, 1,380,872 in the urban area and 2,410,960 in the metropolitan area. Found within the province of North Holland, Amsterdam is colloquially referred to as the Venice of the North, attributed by the large number of canals which form a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Amsterdam has more than 100 kilometres (60 miles) of canals, most of which are navigable by boat. The city's three main canals are the Prinsengracht, Herengracht, and Keizersgracht. In the Middle Ages, Amsterdam was surrounded by a moat, called the Singel, which now forms the innermost ring in the city, and makes the city centre a horseshoe shape. The city is also served by a seaport. It has been compared with Venice, due to its division into about 90 islands, which are linked by more than 1,200 bridges.

Amsterdam, Impressions - Netherlands HD Travel Channel
Starting from Kaashuis in the pedestrian zone Nieuwendijk in Amsterdam, Netherlands, we collected new impressions in this beautiful city on the day before the Queen's Day.
The cityscape of Amsterdam is dominated by the many canals. Since 2010, the Grachtenring (Canal Ring) is on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
We cross the Singel, the Herengracht (Patricians' Canal or Lord's Canal) and Keizersgracht (Emperor's Canal), and come to the Prinsengracht (Prince's Canal) where the Anne Frank Huis is located. We pass the Blauwburggracht and Bloemgracht, considered as one of the most beautiful Grachts (city-canal), in the Jordaan district.
We admire the marvelous facades in the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, one of the first canals which was converted to a street and thus provoking intense public protests.
From Spui, a square is named after the former river, one enters the Begijnhof. The Beguines were the female members of Christian lay religious orders who led a celibate life and were at times persecuted by the Roman Catholic Church.
In and around the Palace at the Dam, preparations for Throne Change on the next day were being made, while teenagers already started the celebrations.
Two days later we briefly visited Chinatown, the Red Light District and the Damrak, the street leading from Dam to the Central Station with its remarkable entrance hall.

Ausgehend vom Kaashuis in der Fußgängerzone Nieuwendijk in Amsterdam, Niederlande, sammelten wir am Vortag des Koninginnedag neue Impressionen in dieser wunderschönen Stadt.
Im Korenmetershuis sind nationale Organisationen zum Schutz des nationalen Erbes untergebracht. Amsterdams Stadtbild wird dominiert von den vielen Grachten. Seit 2010 ist der Grachtenring auf der Liste der UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe.
Wir überqueren die Singel-, die Heren- und die Keizersgracht und stoßen auf die Prinsengracht in der sich das Anne Frank Huis befindet. Wir passieren dabei die Blauwburggracht und die Bloemgracht im Jordaanviertel, die als die Schönste gilt.
Im Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, einer der ersten Grachten, die zur Straße umfunktioniert wurde und damit heftige Bürgerproteste auslöste, bewundern wir die herrlichen Fassaden.
Vom Spui, einem Platz der nach dem ehemaligen Fluss benannt ist, betritt man den Begijnhof. Die Beginen waren die weiblichen Mitglieder von ordensähnlichen Hausgemeinschaften die ein eheloses Leben führten und teilweise von der katholischen Kirche verfolgt wurden.
Im und um den Palast am Dam liefen die Vorbereitungen für den am kommenden Tag geplanten Thronwechsel, während Jugendliche bereits mit dem Feiern begannen.
Am übernächsten Tag besuchten wir noch kurz das Chinesenviertel, den Red Light District und die Damrak, die Straße die vom Dam zur Centraal Station mit ihrer sehenswerten Eingangshalle, führt.

Summary of Amsterdam:
Amsterdam is the Netherlands’ capital, known for its artistic heritage, elaborate canal system and narrow houses with gabled facades, legacies of the city’s 17th-century Golden Age. Its Museum District houses the Van Gogh Museum, works by Rembrandt and Vermeer at the Rijksmuseum, and modern art at the Stedelijk. Cycling is key to the city’s character, and there are numerous bike paths.
Amsterdam-Rhine Canal:
Amsterdam-Rhine Canal, Dutch Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal, Dutch waterway connecting the port of Amsterdam with the Rhine River. From Amsterdam the canal passes to the southeast through Utrecht on its way to the Waal River near Tiel. Inaugurated in 1952, the canal has a total length of 72 km (45 miles) and contains four locks. It was enlarged in the 1970s and reopened in 1981. It is the most heavily used canal in western Europe and can handle up to four 3,000-ton lighters (unpowered barges) tied together and push-towed by a tug. The canal’s minimum depth is 5.5 metres (18 feet).
United States:
The United States of America (USA), commonly known as the United States (U.S.) or America (/əˈmɛrɪkə/), is a federal republic[16][17] composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major self-governing territories, and various possessions.[fn 6] Forty-eight states and the federal district are contiguous and located in North America between Canada and Mexico. The state of Alaska is in the northwest corner of North America, bordered by Canada to the east and across the Bering Strait from Russia to the west. The state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific Ocean. The U.S. territories are scattered about the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, stretching across nine official time zones. The extremely diverse geography, climate and wildlife of the United States make it one of the world's 17 megadiverse countries.[19]
At 3.8 million square miles (9.8 million km2)[20] and with over 324 million people, the United States is the world's third- or fourth-largest country by total area,[fn 7] and the third-most populous. The capital is Washington, D.C., and the largest city is New York City; twelve other major metropolitan areas—each with at least 4.5 million inhabitants—are Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Miami, Atlanta, Boston, San Francisco, Phoenix, and Riverside.

Griots Republic - Black Travel Profiles - The Black Archives
One of the few archives in the Netherlands focusing on black heritage, The Black Archives aims to make the hidden black history of the Netherlands visible. The Black Archives unlocks a unique collection of books, archives and artefacts, legacies of black writers and scientists. The Black Archives documents the history of black emancipation movements and individuals in the Netherlands, preserving it and making it visible and accessible to a wide audience.
The growing archive currently consists of more than 4,000 special historical books, documents, photographs, films and artifacts around Surinamese and black history in the Netherlands. Central topics from the archives are racism, slavery and knowledge about former colonies and black emancipation. Many topics are current and also underexposed, while everyone should have knowledge of these histories.
The archives are located in the premises of the 'Association Our Suriname' in eastside Amsterdam, an association with its 100th anniversary in 2019.
The Black Archives can currently be visited by appointment. Also guided tours are given. Together with the Amsterdam Museum, The Black Archives is currently creating an exhibition planned to open end of November, 2017, focusing on life and work of Otto and Hermina Huiswoud.
