What is special about the Rijksmuseum?
The Netherlands' top treasure house, the Rijksmuseum (pronounced 'rikes'), is among the world's finest art museums. With over 1.5km of galleries, it packs in around 8000 artworks with paintings by homegrown heroes Rembrandt, Vermeer and Van Gogh, as well as plenty of other masterpieces.

I loved the Rijksmuseum as much as the Van Gough.
(It was a little overwhelming to see it ALL in a single day.)
