Spectacular piece of lovely Saint Petersburg in Amsterdam. The concept of this place is similar to Louvre's branch in Abu Dhabi: much smaller than original museum, but still nice to spend some time.
The Russian Hermitage has several international branches, the one in Amsterdam is the largest and it is housed in a beautiful, classic architectural building. Book tickets online to avoid queues.
The "Dining with Tsars" expedition is short interesting and beautiful. Lots of trivia about their balls,if you like the pre-revolution Russia it is ideal!
Touching the courtyard of Hermitage being Saint Petersburg's nice cutie little branch is like joining back to Jewish peaceful dreams quite cozy and simply beautiful..

I've been there for Vincent and Peter. Vincent is overrated while the exhibition on Aleksandar the Great was good. Come early or you will have very long waiting times.
Pay extra attention on detail and colour of the paintings with King Willem II and his wife Anna Paulowna. Visit Cafe Restaurant Neva at the first (1) floor afterwards.
