The city that I've always wanted to visit


I've always wanted to visit Amsterdam. The mane thing that attracts me in this magnificent city is its narrow houses and charming streets. 
Indeed, there are places in the city you should not miss during your visit. There are shops in which you can find old lamps that were made around the world. Each of them restored, but didn’t lose its history and uniqueness.
Moreover there is the lowest concentration of cars on the city’s roads. Bikes are held in high esteem. It’s just incredible, you feel as if you have died and found yourself in an ideal ecological city.


And as far as I know, Amsterdam's casinos are as popular as Las Vegas’ casinos. The most important difference is that you needn't any dress code, because everybody can come in and try himself in gambling. The city is also known for its marvelous Bruine CafĂ©. As Amsterdam is a multicultural city, a lot of different ethnic restaurants can be found there. Restaurants range from being rather luxurious and expensive to ordinary and affordable.

I do not know whether you find it splendid or not, but I'm curious to look at the narrowest house in the world. The length is about 2.2 meters. In any case I wonder how the owners of this unique house welcome guests.

By the way there is a very original sculpture in the "red light district" on the area Oudekerksplein: a man's hand, hugging a woman's breast. It is also extraordinary as it was built into the pavement. The funny thing is that the author is unknown. 
To sum it up, I think that Amsterdam is worth seeing. It is a marvel city. Amsterdam has many parks, open spaces, and squares throughout the city. The atmosphere there is magnificent, people are famously friendly and moreover prices are low.

  1. That's better now! However, the story looks a bit fragmentary - a collection of interesting, but separate facts about the city's attractions.
    "Amsterdam's casinos are as popular as Las Vegas’ ones" - we use "one" in order not to repeat the same noun twice.
    "a marvellous city"
