2. Anne Frankhuis

WESTERN CANAL RING / JORDAAN.   Thanks to her diary, the story of Anne Frank's hiding from the Nazis is a well-known historical event. Nevertheless, visitors to the actual building where she, her family and friends hid during the German Occupation will find themselves thrown into instant contemplation in the face of this tangible reminder. Once-hidden rooms still contain period memorabilia, along with the haunting presence of those who spent two years of their lives secreted behind walls, dreaming of eventual freedom. Although only Otto Frank, Anne's father, would realize that hope, the experience of the rest will never be forgotten. Come early – or in the evening – to avoid the lines at this humbling site.   (© 10Best)

An incredibly humbling experience!! You can almost feel the presence of those poor souls who were secreted away from the nazis and prying eyes for 2 years. Looking out into the back yard and watching the same large oak tree they must have stared at longingly all that time, stays imbedded in my mind 25 years later! A must visit while here.
