THE JORDAAN
Marnixkade Canalview Apartments are located in the Jordaan.
The Jordaan is generally considered Amsterdam’s most charming
historical neighbourhood. The narrow streets and canals were
originally home to Amsterdam’s many artisan workshops.
Rembrandt van Rijn even had his studio in this area.
Built just outside the three most central canals where Amsterdam’
s wealthy merchant class lived during Holland’s Golden Era, the
Jordaan was always teeming with industry like carpentry
workshops, breweries and distilleries. Today you will find well
maintained buildings predominately from the 17th and 18th
century in the Jordaan. In addition to being a largely residential
area, today’s Jordaan features artist and crafts studios as well an
array of small and very diverse restaurants. During your visit you
will want to spend some time strolling through this neighborhood.
