Parking near Grachtengordel-West

Grachtengordel-West is an area in Amsterdam situated along its four primary canals - Singel, Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht. The neighborhood is defined by its streets, quays, bridges and houses built on relatively identical plots of land with private interior gardens known as "keurblokken." Many of the houses lining Amsterdam's canals and streets were constructed during the Dutch Golden Age and renovated over time, producing an eclectic blend of architectural styles and facades. Even with some 20th century developments and some unfortunate new construction projects taking place nearby, Grachtengordel-West remains an extremely popular tourist attraction and was added to UNESCO World Heritage List in 2010.

Grachtengordel-West boasts an illustrious past. Before the 16th century ended, Amsterdam consisted only of the areas between Singel and Kloveniersburgwal; following Alteratie and its accompanying change of government, however, growth of Amsterdam quickly expanded rapidly. Amsterdam experienced four phases of expansion between 1585 and 1665, beginning with its founding. Beginning during the Twelve Year's Truce period of 1613, city workers dug canals known as Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht for construction of canals that ran alongside raised plots of land sold off as raised parcels for sale. After the Treaty of Munster, new defense lines were joined to existing walls at Leidsegracht and connected to them with canals extending to Amstel River and Herengracht being elevated.
