It's one of the top tourist spots in Amsterdam. The tour takes you through all the same rooms where the Franks and other Jews hid. When I visited, some of Anne's movie magazine clippings were still on the walls. It truly is a fascinating place to visit. Sad, bittersweet. I would recommend that anybody who visits there first watches that 1960 film The Diary of Anne Frank.
