Amsterdam Photo: What Tourists Do in Amsterdam
Whenever I spot the IAMSTERDAM logo, I cannot ignore it. I always take photos of this Amsterdam icon. I am not the only one. Passing tourists nudge each other and clamber up, on and around the giant red and white letters.
IAMSTERDAM is a two-metre tall (6.5 ft) and twenty-four-metre(26 yards)long wall of letters. Its permanent location is at Museumplein (map), opposite the Rijksmuseum. A second set pops up in unexpected places. Yesterday I stumbled upon IAMSTERDAM at Nieuwmarkt. (map)
