"Diamonds are forever. They are all I need to please me."
But the thing is, they can be too expensive to own. And for those sharing the same fate, we can always go to a diamond shop/ museum in Amsterdam called Coster Diamonds. Coster Diamonds has been around since 1840. As you can see on the sign, entrance is free so there's nothing stopping you from the diamonds.

When you step into Coster Diamonds, you will be welcomed by diamond crowns. Coster Diamonds was actually involved in the creation of historical masterpieces, like the re-polishing of the Koh-i-Noor, mounted in the Crown of Queen Mary, the real one being stored under heavy surveillance in the Tower of London.
Yup, they are the only the imitation of the real ones here.
Details are listed below the glass case.
The guided tour lasts around 40 minutes and before we know it, we were already outside the museum section. There is also the shop section in Coster Diamonds where you can purchase diamond embedded on jewelleries.
Since I was getting bored waiting for the rest of the tour mates while they were browsing around the diamond jewelleries, I took the opportunity to take picture inside the giant wooden shoe.
I am more interested in the shoe than the diamond. A total oddball. Or simply a poor tourist. Hahaha.
