The inside story
Navigating by Utrech canals is the essential and best way to discover the city. Oudegracht and Nieuwegracht are its two main canals and are surrounded by historic buildings, restaurants, cafes, boutiques, bridges, and lush trees running through the entire historic city center.
The canals were built as a navigation route at the beginning of the 12th century. The water-level cellars and terraces connected directly with the warehouses of the houses and shops. Today, these basements have been transformed into cafes and restaurants, turning the canal into a very long terrace where you can enjoy a pleasant day.
