Walking in Amsterdam
Amsterdam is flat, compact and laced with canals. Its seventeenth-century canal ring is one of the most beautiful urban landscapes in Europe and a pleasure to explore on foot.
Terrain. Completely flat, on brick pavements and narrow canal-side streets. Pavements can be crowded and blocked by parked bikes.
Bikes. Never walk in the red bike lanes, and look both ways before crossing them. In the centre, narrow streets are often shared, and cyclists do not always yield.
