The Faithful Heart

The Faithful Heart
I Amsterdam



The activity of the second day Hana and Dewa enjoy the honeymoon in the Netherlands is almost the same as the activities of other romantic couples. That morning after breakfast Hana eagerly invites her husband to travel around the city of Amsterdam on a bicycle. There are indeed many bicycle rental places, because as if cycling on the streets of Amsterdam is a must that should not be missed by the visitors. The cold air in the city that has more than 100 canals is in fact unable to prevent tourists from continuing to pedal the city's iconic vehicles to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding scenery.


Armed with a Dewa bike and Hana down the road that is intended for bicycle and pedestrian trajectories. Hana's eyes sparkled and unceasingly clucked in awe at the beautiful and well-preserved medieval buildings along the path she passed. His hand was busy capturing the trip with a cell phone in one of his hands, while the other hand coiled affectionately on the waist of the man who is now sitting in front of him while moving his legs to continue paddling in the cold air.


The hotel where Hana and Dewa stay is in a very strategic place, close to many tourist attractions frequented by tourists, one of which is the Square or Museumplein museum. It only took ten minutes for them to get there by riding a bicycle. In the wide open area it is lined with important buildings in Amsterdam such as the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Diamond Museum, Stedelijk Museum, Royal Concertgebouw, show room, and the United States consulate.



Hana's face was seen as a figure of relief as her legs were standing in front of the Van Gogh museum. The building is located on the west side of the Square Museum.


" Let's go quickly inside." Hana asked while pulling her husband's arm. He looked very excited to immediately enter the four-story building.


" Yes, patience. No need to hunt. No one is chasing us."


The Van Gogh Museum is one of the largest collections of artists in the world of paintings and letters. It was designed by Gerrit Rietveld and Kisho Kurakawa in the 1970s and opened on June 2, 1973. In 2015 it became the 2nd most visited museum in the Netherlands. There are about 200 paintings from Dutch post impressionists occupying this popular spot. Displayed chronologically, his drawings offer Van Gogh's developing style. It houses a collection of paintings and drawings of Vincent Van Gogh and his contemporaries.



Hana who was always interested in art, especially paintings, looks very enthusiastic to see every collection on display there. His eyes really felt pampered.


" It's amazing." decak Hana many times every time you look at the painting.


As if not feeling tired, Hana traced the four-story building without anything being missed. Even without feeling Hana and the Gods spent hours observing the paintings one by one.


" Where are we going now?" god asked as the two walked out of the door of the Van Gogh museum.


" Course the Rijksmuseum." Hana groped the arms of the Gods to follow her steps towards the next destination.


" A museum again?"


" Of course. The Van Gogh Museum and the Rijksmuseum are located in the same area. Of course we should visit both. Come on, baby, I can't wait to get into it." Hana sped up her footsteps, and God could only fulfill her beloved wife's wishes. Because indeed both museums are the most visited places by tourists who vacation in Amsterdam.


Hana took the time to selfie and pose with the Gods near the city's iconic writing, I AMSTERDAM located near the Rijksmuseum.



Inside there are various collections of paintings from the famous Maestro of the Netherlands and various other countries in the world. In addition, one of the popular Dutch destinations also stores a collection of old books and classic photography collections. The museum is dedicated to art and history and has a collection of up to one million objects of which only a portion is on display today. One of his most famous collections of paintings is "The Night Watch (De Nachtwacht) a masterpiece from Rembrandt Harmenszoon Van Rijn in 1642.



" It's amazing, baby look. It's so beautiful." hailed Hana for a number of times while observing the painting almost four meters high and four and a half meters wide. The painting was indeed phenomenal, using the technique of manipulating dramatic light exposures. Rembrandt is considered to be the main character of luminism. As for luminism itself adapted to the Latin, lumen which means light, light.


In addition to its collection of paintings, the museum also has a pleasant garden and beautiful buildings to admire and immortalize. Not to forget this museum also has a souvenir shop and cafe and other facilities to make the tourists more comfortable to linger there.


As time had changed, the sunlight had faded and slowly disappeared in the horizon line. Hana and Dewa walked hand in hand along the beauty of the canal decorated with lamou that began to light up on its outskirts. What a very romantic scene, there are many couples who also enjoy the atmosphere while walking on the edge of the canal or riding a boat like Hana and Dewa did yesterday.



There are many restaurants and cafes around it. Although it began to enter the winter but in fact did not reduce the enthusiasm of the surrounding community and tourists to spend their time there. Whether it's just walking or to enjoy dinner at one of the cafes or restaurants.




Hana and Dewa return to the hotel when night falls. Both are so enjoying the view of the city, whether it is a medieval building, canal, or the activities of tourists and people passing by. It was all inseparable from the shot of Hana's phone. In fact, the mother of God initially offered a photographer to follow and capture every moment of their romantic during their honeymoon. But all of that was rejected by Hana and the Gods because it was considered that it would interfere with their excitement and romance.


Hana stands behind the balcony of the room enjoying the view of Amsterdam at night. Somehow his eyes did not get tired to continue to admire the beauty of the city filled with many canals.



" Are you happy?" whispered God while hugging his wife's body from behind.


" Yes, I am very happy. Thank you for every day so wonderful and so loving" Hana said, landing a soft kiss on her husband's lips. Of course, God does not waste the sweet lips of the wife who eventually became opium for him. He returned the kiss with love. Slowly but surely the soft kiss turned into a hot kiss. The two seem to be sniffing each other out and sucking on each other. And as already, they again ended up in bed to do a hot battle filled with sigh* and moans of pleasure. And it all seems to have become a mandatory ritual for both of them.
