Amsterdam is the perfect mix of tradition and modernity. While on one hand it has preserved its 16th century houses, on the other hand it is certainly not behind with modern skyscrapers and glass buildings which have come up in different parts of the city. Even the old city is embedded with latest technology systems like the underground subway, electric trams, etc.
