De Negen Straatjes In a small central city quarter standing over the Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht canals we find the area affectionately known to locals as “The Nine Streets”. This is one of the city’s best locations for shopping. Stroll through these brickwork lanes to find vintage clothing and furniture shops right next to modern boutiques. There are also art galleries, bookshops, traditional cheesemakers and some of the city’s best cafés and bars, among other surprises. If you have money to spare, the Nine Streets is where you should be!
Practical Information The Nine Streets quarter has an official website where you can find the main shops’ location and other useful information.
