Overview

The 17th century represented for Amsterdam what is called its Golden Age.

During this fantastic period, the city set up a huge network of trades all over the globe that, in a few years, made its citizens the richest and most powerful in the world.

This wealthy period also gave birth to many aspects of our modern society, like Liberalism and Capitalism.

This tour is an adventurous journey through the streets and the places where this fantastic period started, developed and inexorably ended, leaving an indelible mark in this city and our daily lives.
