Keizersgracht (Emperor’s Canal)

‘All the world is built around Amsterdam,’ wrote the famous Dutch poet Joost van den Vondel in the 17th century. That golden age was a period of unprecedented wealth and prosperity for Amsterdam. The old area of the town within the Singel canal burst out of its seams, so the ring of canals was designed to accommodate the sorely needed town expansion. The three main canals, Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht, were dug around the mediaeval town centre and were connected by side-streets.
