Brouwersgracht

Una delle vie più belle del quartiere Jordan e di tutta Amsterdam, soprattutto grazie ai palazzi (ex sedi di birrifici) che vi si affacciano e che presentano tetti a spioventi e curiose imposte colorate (di rosso e di bianco in particolare). Nei secoli XVI e XVII in questo che veniva chiamato "il canale dei birrai" venivano lavorate e immagazzinate diversi tipi di merci, come cuoio, caffè, olio di balena. Qu aveva sede anche l'ultima distilleria di gin olandese. Oggi è un luogo da non perdere per una bellissima passeggiata ammirando il canale e le splendide case che lo incorniciano.
