Capital
Amsterdam
Because it’s a small country, the weather in the Netherlands doesn’t vary too much from place to place. In the summer, you’re looking at an average temperature of 17˚C across the board, with around seven hours of sunshine per day. And, autumn and spring line up temperatures in the low teens. Winter weather dips down to an average of 3˚C, so you’ll want to pack a coat if you’re heading over at this time of year.
