Take a stroll along the Singel, and you're tracing the city's oldest heartbeat. Once the medieval moat, this canal now offers a more peaceful and intimate glimpse into Amsterdam life compared to its grander neighbours. You'll wander past incredible gabled houses, floating houseboats, and the famous floating Flower Market, where the scent of fresh blooms fills the air. It’s the perfect place to slow down, grab a coffee at a quiet café, and just watch the city drift by.
