#20: Rijksmuseum

August 26, 1999: We visited Netherlands' most famous museum, Rijksmuseum. Rijksmuseum is filled with works from Rembrandt, Vermeer and more. The most famous work is shown here, The Night Watch, by Rembrandt van Rijn from the 1642. It is a massive piece of art and has a grand hall all to itself. Definitely a sight to behold!
My ticket stub.

Verdict: If you enjoy art, history, culture or just think it's cool to see something in person that you saw in all your Humanities books, the Rijksmuseum is not to be missed. If however, you are not into any of those things.... you could probably die without seeing this :)
