Why I love springtime in Amsterdam

Judging by the amount of articles I have on the blog about spring in Amsterdam, this must be my favourite season. The joy brought by the longer spring days is always a great one. Surviving another dark Dutch winter feels almost like an accomplishment. Everything comes back to life, everything looks better under the sun. But let’s see why I love spring so much, what does this season brings with it that makes it the best time to be in Amsterdam?
Blue skies and more sunny days:
