Amsterdam has the most expensive daily parking rate in the world, according to a survey by real estate consultants Colliers International.
The survey shows it costs the equivalent of $70.77 to park a car all day in central Amsterdam. Number two on the list is London's City area at $56.68. The Hague is joint third with Vienna at $56.62.
Amsterdam also has the third highest monthly parking rate in the world at $805.36, behind London's City and London's West End.
An Amsterdam city council spokesman told the Parool that charges are high 'to keep the city clean'.
