• Prinsengracht - Welcome to the historic neighborhood of ‘Jordaan’, a delightful area in Amsterdam.

• Anne Frank House - The Anne Frank House (Dutch: Anne Frank Huis) is a writer’s house and biographical museum dedicated to the Jewish wartime diarist Anne Frank. Situated on the Prinsengracht canal, near the Westerkerk, in central Amsterdam, Netherlands.

During World War II, Anne Frank hid from Nazi persecution with her family and four others in concealed rooms at the back of the 17th-century canal house, known as the Secret Annex (Dutch: Achterhuis). Although she did not survive the war, her diary was published in 1947. A decade later, the Anne Frank Foundation was established to protect the property from developers who intended to demolish the block.

• Westerkerk - The Westerkerk is a Reformed church within Dutch Protestant Calvinism, located in central Amsterdam, Netherlands. It is situated in the western part of the Grachtengordel neighborhood, adjacent to the Jordaan, between the Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht.
• Houseboat Museum - At the Houseboat Museum, experience what it’s like to live on a houseboat in an Amsterdam canal. The museum is housed in the “Hendrika Maria”, a former cargo ship built in 1914. The cargo hold has been transformed into a cozy living space with all modern conveniences and a surprising amount of space and comfort.
• Leidsegracht - Leidsegracht is a canal in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It is a cross-canal in Amsterdam-Center that connects Herengracht, Keizersgracht, Prinsengracht, and Lijnbaansgracht, flowing into the Singelgracht at Marnixstraat.
• Beulingsloot - De Beulingsloot is one of the oldest and shortest canals in the center of Amsterdam, located within the Grachtengordel.
• Melkmeisjesbrug - The Melkmeisjesbrug is a fixed bridge in Amsterdam-Center.

A bridge has existed here for centuries. Balthasar Florisz. van Berckenrode (1625), Joan Blaeu (1649), and Daniël Stalpaert (1662) included it on their maps. The modern history of the bridge began in 1883 when a pedestrian drawbridge was replaced by a permanent bridge. This was feasible as shipping had largely ceased here. However, the passage was too narrow. The abutments and bridge were renewed in 1903 with the construction of a paraboolligger bridge with iron sickle girders. The bridge appeared slender and blended well with the street scene. The new version of the bridge, made of steel in 1966, also exhibits these characteristics.

The bridge is named after the milk market once held here. Later, a catering establishment was built, featuring an image of a milkmaid as a sign. The bridge is likely the site where the first (type) Amsterdammertje was placed.

• The Amstel - The Amstel is a river in the province of North Holland, Netherlands. It flows from the Aarkanaal and Drecht in Nieuwveen northwards, passing Uithoorn, Amstelveen, and Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, to the IJ in Amsterdam. Annually, the river hosts the Liberation Day concert, Head of the River Amstel rowing match, and the Amsterdam Gay Pride boat parade.

The Amstel was formed around 1050 BC when a freshwater river cut into a tidal channel of the IJ, now known as Damrak and Rokin.

• Hermitage Amsterdam - Hermitage Amsterdam is a branch museum of the Hermitage Museum of Saint Petersburg, Russia, located on the banks of the Amstel river in Amsterdam. The museum is housed in the former Amstelhof, a classical-style building from 1681. The dependency displayed small exhibitions in the adjacent Neerlandia Building from 24 February 2004 until the main museum opened on 19 June 2009.

It is currently the largest satellite of the Hermitage Museum, with a total area of 12,846 m2, aligning with the museum’s plan to make its collections accessible to more people. The exhibition area covers 2,172 m2 and includes two large exhibition halls and smaller exhibition rooms. The remaining space accommodates lecture halls, offices, staff accommodations, and a restaurant.

• Stopera Pier - The Stopera is a building complex in Amsterdam, Netherlands, housing both the city hall of Amsterdam and the Dutch National Opera and Ballet, the principal opera house in Amsterdam, home to the Dutch National Opera, Dutch National Ballet, and Holland Symfonia. The building was designed by Wilhelm Holzbauer and Cees Dam.

The name is an abbreviation of the protest slogan “Stop the Opera” and not a portmanteau of “st”adhuis (Dutch: “city hall”) and “opera” as often claimed. Since ‘Stopera’ was a name for the protests against the building, the theater has never used this name in their communication.

• Centraal Station - Amsterdam Centraal was designed by Pierre Cuypers, who is also renowned for his design of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. While Cuypers was the principal architect, it is believed that he focused mainly on the decoration of the station building, leaving the structural design to railway engineers.
• IJdok - The IJ is a body of water, formerly a bay, in the Dutch province of North Holland, known for being Amsterdam’s waterfront.
