    The Amstel is a beautifull river in amsterdam. It is very nice to have a walk on the riverside. At daytime or in the evening (when bridges are lighted with a lot of little lamps).
    You will see a lot of canals, little bridges, houseboats, beautifull old homes and buildings, and little boats on the river.

    - You can start at the Muntplein (Flowermarket) and walk a few minutes to the east. This is the Waterlooplein (the Fleemarket is a few min. further).
    - Follow the Amstel to the south.
    - You will see the Blauwbrug, and the Magere Brug (a famous little bridge).
    - A little further to the south is Theatre Carré and the Amstelhotel (both on the eastside of the river). This is the most expensive hotel in Amsterdam (maybe even in Holland). It has a big terras on the riverside. Easy to recognise.
    - After you passed the Amstelhotel, walk over the next bridge to the Eastside of the river.
    - Walk back on the Eastside to the Muntplein (you have to go round the Amstelhotel).

    You can do this walk within 1 hour. There are a lot of canals you have to cross over. Everytime you have to climb a little bridge.

    * Never forget to look up! The most beautifull part of Amsterdam is the roofs of the houses!

    The Muntplein is at the end of the Kalverstraat (the long shoppingstreet).
    The Muntplein (centre) is easy to reach with a lot of trams, and less than half a hour walking from almost every place in Amsterdam-centre. The metro is close to the Amstel, just a few streets to the east.
