Hi all!

I am planning to visit Amsterdam for the upcoming Christmas holiday, and would like to know what "family friendly" activities are there to participate/see? Also, since I'll be there on Christmas Day (Dec 25 as celebrated in the US), any ideas of what restaurants will be open (if any).

Thanks!😀💖

Hi Anev and welcome to the Forum. It's a public holiday, so things won't be "normal" and many places will be closed on 25th Dec. The "I am Amsterdam" website has a guide for the holiday period; this link will take you to there website.
