【Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam】

Visiting Amsterdam wouldn't be complete without a trip to one of the top ten world-class museums, the Rijks Museum, to admire the masterpieces of the great masters. It takes about four to five hours to explore the entire museum. 🖼️Standing before the museum's treasures, "The Night Watch" and "The Jewish Bride," Van Gogh once said, "If I could sit in front of Rembrandt's paintings for two weeks, even if I had to eat hard bread or live ten years less, I would willingly do it." In addition to these, Vermeer's "The Milkmaid" and "Woman Reading a Letter," the world's most exquisite dollhouse, the Osterrieth Dollhouse, the most delicate ship model named after King William, and the finest Delft ceramics are all unique collections of the Rijks Museum. 🏛️The museum houses over 30 exhibition halls dedicated to showcasing the splendor of the Dutch Golden Age, when the Netherlands was a young commercial republic leading the world in trade, science, military expansion, and art. Among them, right at the center, is the refurbished Gallery of Honour, displaying a vast array of masterpieces by world-renowned Dutch artists, including works by Frans Hals, Jan Steen, Johannes Vermeer, and Rembrandt van Rijn. #Netherlands #Amsterdam #WeekendGetaway #Museum #MustVisitMuseum #AmsterdamSpot #DutchMuseum
