Amsterdam's Canals

Admire the reflections shimmering on the water and soak in the atmosphere that has inspired artists and poets for centuries.

Reflect upon her powerful story and the resilience of the human spirit within those walls. The Westerkerk offers incredible city views from its tower for those who dare to climb.

Discover hidden courtyards, savor local delicacies at charming cafes, and soak in the bohemian atmosphere that has attracted artists and creatives for decades. This vibrant district offers a truly authentic Amsterdam experience.

Surrounded by historic houses, including the oldest wooden house in Amsterdam, this serene courtyard provides a glimpse into the city's medieval past. Visit the English Reformed Church for a touch of architectural and spiritual elegance.
