Tadaaa..after we wrapped the day, together with my friend, we went to try canal river cruise. Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, is famous for its beautiful canals and is the main tourist attraction in this city. One of the famous canals in Amsterdam is the Amsterdam Canal Ring, which has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2010. Apart from that, there are also several other important canals such as Herengracht, Keizersgracht, and Prinsengracht.



The Amsterdam Canals themselves began in the 17th century, where the city of Amsterdam experienced rapid economic and trade development. The construction of canals was carried out to facilitate the transportation of goods and people, as well as to expand the city area. Until now, the canals in Amsterdam remain a symbol of the beauty and characteristic of this city.

Apart from that, there are also many interesting tourist attractions such as museums, parks and historical buildings around the canal.
