Canal Belt walk
Walk beside Amsterdam’s 17th-century canal ring and its bridges, with canal cruises and house museums as paid extras.
What to expect
Amsterdam’s concentric canal district was laid out during the city’s expansion in the 17th century and is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage property. A manageable visit is a short stretch along Herengracht, Keizersgracht or Prinsengracht, crossing a few bridges and looking back at the canal houses and tree-lined quays. This listing describes a public-street walk, not a fixed-length loop; canal cruises and house museums are separate paid visits.
