One distinctive feature of ADE is the unique mix of chaos and tranquility. The atmosphere is a flurry of people, rushing between meetings, panels and listening parties. A sudden detour could land someone in front of the Ann Frank House or The Van Gogh Museum, The Nine Little Streets shopping district, a marijuana coffee-shop, a canal boat ride, an amazing nightclub, or the Red Light District. Yes, everything is larger than life in Amsterdam- however, simplicity lives here too.
