To commemorate him and his works, the whole nation is going to celebrate ‘Rembrandt and the Golden Age’.

The Night Watch is considered as one of the most significant works of Rembrandt. Its restoration work will start in July of 2019. The restoration process will be done publicly and hence will be visible to all the visitors. It is after 40 years that the structure is going to be renovated again.
Eat Vegan
This is a trend, which has conquered the food scene of Amsterdam. It does not seem to leave the scene very soon. The plant-based menu of the Vegan Junk Food Bar has become very famous. They presently have four locations in the city. The menu extends from junk food made out of plants to delicious vegan cheeses. Those vegans who love the Japenese cuisine can try their vegan sashimi, which is very exquisite.
