The ‘Brouwersgracht’ is also part of this route. This canal is the most beautiful canal of Amsterdam, according to readers of the Amsterdam newspaper ‘Het Parool’. Here you will find an atmosphere typical for the Jordaan neighbourhood of Amsterdam. Continuing on this route you enter the Amstel river and pass the Hermitage museum. A stunning building to see.
