Increase in tourism Amsterdam |
|
The number of foreign and domestic tourists in the Netherlands rose above 42 million in 2017, an increase of 9% and the sharpest growth rate since 2006, the national statistics office CBS reported earlier this month. The figures are based on overnight stays but do not include visitors staying in accommodation with fewer than five guests. This means the substantial number of Airbnb travellers and those booking through other online platforms are excluded from total numbers. YLE reporter Kirsti Karttunen visits the Amsterdam Dam Square and the Red Light District to see serious the increase is and to find out what tourists and locals think about it.
