Every year on April 27th, the Netherlands celebrates King's Day, a nationwide festival that attracts countless tourists and locals. As the most grandiose celebration in the Netherlands, the entire country is awash in a sea of orange, symbolizing the royal family's Oranje (Orange) lineage. Whether in Amsterdam or other towns, the streets are alive with music performances, exhibitions, markets, and parties, creating a vibrant atmosphere. 

 On this day, people dress in orange attire, wear orange accessories, and even dye their hair orange or paint orange blocks on their faces, fully embracing the festive spirit. Amsterdam is particularly lively, with many people staking out spots on the streets the night before to prepare for the next day's flea market. This market is a paradise for treasure hunters, offering everything from private collections to unique handicrafts, with prices determined entirely by bargaining between buyers and sellers. 

 If you're a collector or enthusiast, King's Day is an opportunity not to be missed. Arrive early, take your time to explore, and you're sure to find something special. Whether you're there to experience Dutch culture or to hunt for unique treasures, King's Day promises an unparalleled experience. Plan your trip to the Netherlands and immerse yourself in this orange celebration! 

 Additionally, celebrating on the water is a fantastic experience! From luxury yachts to electric sailboats, you can choose according to your group size and preferences. Companies like Mokumboot Verhuur and Canal Motorboats offer boat rental services, and you can check their websites for specific offerings. 

 Music festivals are another highlight of King's Day. With a variety of music genres ranging from EDM, House, and techno to urban music, each festival has its own unique atmosphere and lineup. Tickets can be purchased on the festival websites, and here are five top recommendations: 1. Loveland van Oranje Festival; 2. Oranjebloesem Festival; 3. Kingsland Festival; 4. Urban Music Legends Festival; 5. Cartel Kingsday Festival. 

 No matter how you choose to celebrate, King's Day will leave you with unforgettable memories!

Dam Square was originally built at the end of the 12th century. The north of the Dam Square on the Amstor River is now the Old Town. The houses in this area used to be shops and were very lively. A celebrity was also born here - Zacharias Jansen, the inventor of the telescope.

幸福的一个小太阳

Tickets for the Van Gogh Museum have been very popular, especially when the domestic May Day holiday meets the King&#39;s Day holiday in the Netherlands, and decisively set the ticket + voice guide half a month in advance in Trip.com . This holiday is sunny and beautiful! Walking along the canal, full of joy, there was almost no queue after arriving at the museum! I took the guided voice machine at the front desk, there are many languages, and I chose Chinese. After spending 3 serious visits to the exhibition, the cultural and creative products of the gift shop are also people who can&#39;t move. A great value trip experience!

I bought tickets on the official website but the payment failed, so I bought them on Ctrip. It&#39;s really convenient and the price is almost the same as on the official website. I&#39;ve bought tickets on Ctrip many times. Sometimes the places I want to go are not available on the official website. I can check on Ctrip. It&#39;s very good.

The canal water system in the Netherlands is very developed. Along the canal, you can learn about the sights and history of the Netherlands. Every location has headphones to introduce the attractions. There are Chinese options. The captain will add some additional knowledge. It is a great trip.
