About Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a cosmopolitan city famous for its modern and liberal values. It is known as the "Venice of the North," not only because it has more than 100 canals. In fact, Amsterdam has four times more bridges than Venice! Torensluis Bridge, built in 1648, is the oldest bridge in Amsterdam. Some of the most famous bridges in the city also include Magere Brug, Herengracht, Keizersgracht, and Prinsengracht.

The floating city of Amsterdam is built on soft clay soil and 11 million wooden poles that support the city from sinking. However, the modern constructions are built either on concrete or steel poles. While there are currently no concerns about Amsterdam sinking and the situation is under control, preventive measures are still being taken.
