Amsterdam in the mirror image: A magical view of the canal belt

Amsterdam is a city full of character, history, and a unique charm you won't find anywhere else. The iconic canal houses along the waterfront are not only a showcase of the Golden Age , but also a visual spectacle for anyone walking through the city.


Deze foto laat Amsterdam op een bijzondere manier zien: een spiegelbeeld van de beroemde gevels die bijna lijken op te gaan in de lucht en het water. Een zeldzaam moment waarop de stad zich van haar meest betoverende kant laat zien.

The magic of Amsterdam's canals

It's not without reason that Amsterdam's canal belt is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The narrow, tall buildings with their graceful facades tell stories from the past. Once housed merchant houses, warehouses, and trading offices, they are now the pride of the city and a popular spot for tourists, photographers, and locals.


What makes this photo so special is the perfect reflection in the water. It captures the calm and serenity of the city, something you don't always expect in the bustling city center. This is Amsterdam at its best: timeless and impressive.


A city walk full of discoveries

If you want to experience these iconic places for yourself, take a stroll along the Damrak or the canals of the Jordaan and the Gouden Bound. These are some of the best places to admire Amsterdam's famous architecture and atmospheric streets. Visit one of the many waterfront cafés, take a boat cruise, or simply enjoy the view of the dancing facades.


Amsterdam through the lens

This photo is a great example of how Amsterdam never ceases to amaze. Whether it's a busy, energetic day or a quiet moment like the one captured here, the city never ceases to amaze. The interplay of light, water, and architecture makes it a photographer's paradise.
