Amsterdam

I know this is not a travel channel but maybe some local can help me avoid tourists trap :) I will start to plan my day in Amsterdam today (I'll be there in a couple of weeks). Any "can't miss" places to go (daytime)? Excluding museums, just areas to walk around and visit. 1 day only, so I'll have to be picky 🤣👀

Yeah you can walk through dam square - there are a few canals as you walk down to Rokin and you will walk past Rijksmuseum - walk through to see the maze garden

Is there is something on the walk to there from the central station? Maps says it's 3km, but i guess there should be something to see or stop for on the way?
