Where To Stay, Walk, Eat And Drink With Your Dog In Amsterdam
Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, a city of canals, bridges and gabled houses that is made for exploring on foot or by bicycle. The Vondelpark, the Westerpark and the Oosterpark give it green space in every direction, and the Amsterdamse Bos is a whole forest on its southern edge. The Dutch are relaxed about dogs, and most cafes, parks and even the ferries across the IJ welcome them. It is a compact, easy city where a dog on a lead belongs.
