I have some tips I want to share now. And later I write more tips for Lawrence 🦹♂️ and anybody who goes to visit Amsterdam! 🙂
So for food our favourite Chinese restaurants are Nam Kee (Cantonese restaurant at Zeedijk) and the famous floating Chinese restaurant Sea Palace. For the best dim sum you can go to Oriental City!
My favourite bubble tea shop is also at Zeedijk (Chinatown) and is called BiuTea and it also has bubble tea cakes and other drinks. It is very cute and nice!! 🧋🧋🥤🐧
So a very nice museum I like to visit and is for children who are small and also older is NEMO science museum. It is very close to Sea Palace I mentioned earlier. You can also take the tram to the famous museums at Museumplein (Museum square) Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum and the very big Rijksmuseum. And in front of the museum is a big square and park with the letters I ❤️ Amsterdam and you can sit and eat lunch or drink. BUTTT there are very big lines in front of the museum so maybe you can check when you can get in fast.
For you Lawrence you maybe like the Forest Fun at the Amsterdamse Bos. That is a big climbing park in the trees. And you have a lot of different levels but it is nice if you are not scared of being high in the tree. 🌳🌳 The Amsterdamse Bos is also very nice to walk and to be in like a big park so you can play games in the park or you can eat Dutch pancakes at a restaurant. 🥞🥞🥞
If you want to buy Dutch gifts for someone, it is very nice that you can soft wool slippers that look like the Dutch wooden shoes (we call that klompen). It is very comfortable and you can use it in your house or give it as a present. 🎁🎈 And you can buy Dutch cheeses or stroopwafels (I dont know how to call that in English). And tourists like to buy drop (that is black candy that is sweet or salty). 🍭🍬
