In July 2010, Amsterdam’s 17th century canals called Grachtengordel was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. According to Wikipedia, the city’s main attractions such as the Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank House, and the red light district invite over 3.66 million foreign visitors every year. Amsterdam also boasts one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world – the Hortus Botanicus. Amsterdam’s colleges and universities are also among the top performing in the world.
