Amsterdam is a city that usually never sleeps. Busy streets day and night. Bicycles, trams, cars in constant motion. Lots of visitors in town. Music, food, entertainment, many attractions, museums and coffee shops are open for many hours.
This New Year’s Eve, however, on January 1, 2021, found Amsterdam without a crowd. Without holidays without the market bustling with people buying their gifts.

The beautiful decoration of lights in the city finds minimal people on the road and the fog covers the city.The feeling is different without the crowd filling the streets and the silence is amazing. Only the sound of the few trams can be heard.

Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.The trams went by quickly since there are no bicycles and cars and it is almost empty of passengers. The images are reminiscent of science fiction scenarios where people are locked in their homes and do not come close to each other.

The bridges, the canals, the streets, the squares seem to have frozen in time and there is a feeling that the fog and the cold prevail over everything in a stopped flow of time.

In the city of Amsterdam there is a loneliness unprecedented for the city and the Netherlands. Time froze and human activities with it.

The empty streets of Amsterdam show the extent of the fear of Covid-19 and the confinement to the homes, the closing of shops and businesses and with the gaze turned to the uncertain future with the pandemic remaining in the largest part of the planet.
