You step off a tram into a prism of brick, canal glass and sudden brass fanfares from a passing busker; Amsterdam's blocks unfold like an open-air gallery. The scavenger hunt threads you through narrow streets, past the Royal Concertgebouw's sober façade and into leafier pockets where Sarphatipark sighs between townhouses. Challenges nudge you to look up, to listen, to take a photo that proves you noticed the small things.
