| Entrance in the Anne Frank House |
Anne Frank House is named among the most popular visited places in Amsterdam; despite this I found it very boring and overpriced. More than I was standing in the queue around an hour and was totally disappointed.
In the Madam Tussaud Museum you can discover figures of famous people like Barack Obama, Dalai Lama, Princess Diana, Lady Gaga, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Albert Einstein, David Beckham and etc.
Stedelijk Museum is one of the most innovative and interesting museums of modern art in the world. It has one of the richest collection of modern art, paintings by Casimir Malevich, works of Matisse, Picasso, Newman en Rauschenberg and very good collection of design and furniture.
