Combine the original letter with the original and the living supplies (such as the palette), restore the artist&#39;s spiritual world.

Boat tour

Night view

Buy a cup of coffee or tea before boarding and enjoy leisure time. Feel the customs of Amsterdam on the water, look at historical relics, view the beautiful scenery of the Liangqiao, and listen to the past and present. Before boarding the boat, I felt that Amsterdam had anything to see. After the boat, this experience is still good. Quiet down and taste life. The Prince Canal, Anne&#39;s former residence, the West Church, &quot;Amsterdam&#39;s dentures&quot;, or serious, or deep, or funny, RMB 127 is still worth it. This boat is more basic and cost-effective; You can also try more expensive boats full of colorful flowers, take pictures, the most important thing is that there is a wine waiter on the boat, you can order wine/drinks.
