The city's architecture reflects its rich history, with numerous examples of medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque styles on display. The Jordaan neighbourhood, where De Roode Leeuw is located, is a charming example of Amsterdam's evolution, with its narrow streets and picturesque canals. Today, Amsterdam is a cosmopolitan city, celebrated for its liberal attitude, artistic heritage, and world-class museums. The city's Rijksmuseum, Vondelpark, and Anne Frank House are just a few of the many iconic landmarks that draw millions of visitors each year.
