I always find signs interesting when I travel. From the funny and bizarre (most of us have seen the classic \u2018Chinglish<\/a>\u2019 signs of the Far East) to the downright rude, the helpful and the not so helpful; no one can deny that the signs of foreign countries provide great photo opportunities and make for great pictures on your social media profile. In this blog post we look at the signs of Amsterdam<\/strong> plus there\u2019s a holiday package<\/a><\/strong> thrown in for those of you that want to experience the city of diamonds, canals, bikes, glory and freedom for yourself.<\/p>\n

The \u2018I Amsterdam\u2019 Sign<\/h2>\n

The perfect photo opportunity and proof for your friends that you\u2019ve visited the city of Amsterdam. The I Amsterdam sign<\/strong> can be found at the Museumplein, in front of the Rijksmuseum. At more than 2 metres tall and when all lined up, the I Amsterdam letters measure over 23,5 metres wide. Amsterdam\u2019s most famous sign has also appeared in an Amstel Light<\/strong> commercial<\/strong> (see below).<\/p>\n
