Canal house

One of the nicest museums I like to visit it this "Museum of Bags and Purces" , or the "Tassenmuseum" as we call it in dutch, in Amsterdam. It is housed in a beautiful canalhouse from 1666.

This exhibition special attracted my attentention.

In the basement  this futuristic bag was placed in the window.

The inside looks beautiful a lounge where you can have a cosy seat after walking through the museum.

A little corridor.

The tearoom.

And a glass window in the staircase.

The residents who lived here until it became a museum in 2007.
Another time I'll show you some purses.

  1. Alleen al het gebouw maakt het de moeite waard om naar binnen te gaan.

  5. It's a beautiful museum, looking forward to seeing thebags and purses 😊
    I didn't manage to see your King and Queen Marianne, I missed them yesterday at Elizabeth Quay, apparently it was such a lovely people meeting event and today I hoped to catch them as they left Government House on their way to Ascot to watch the race, but again I was too late. But you'll be pleased to hear that the weather was wonderful for them and I believe they really enjoyed their stay. I did see them on TV, such a good looking couple.
