More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start at a canal-side corner, phone in hand, the city pressing close: narrow streets thread between gabled facades, and water slips past as if pushing you forward. The Syndicate drops you into that pressure — you are a character on a mission with riddles that send you down alleys, across bridges, and into public squares where strangers and history collide.

History
Much of central Amsterdam sits on reclaimed land and the 17th‑century canal ring was engineered to manage trade, defense, and urban growth during the Dutch Golden Age.
Conservation
Stick to public transport and walking to minimize your footprint, and treat historic courtyards and canal edges with care—these are protected urban heritage areas.
