Negen Straatjes

Great little neighborhood in the canal district. Lot of cafes, quaint stores etc. We got a lot of shopping done here. Fun way to spend an afternoon sauntering through the streets and the stores.

With only a limited time in Amsterdam (alas) before our river cruise would depart, walking the 9 Streets neighborhood was a must. We took a taxi to the Anne Frank house and walked the few blocks to a starting point. It was a chilly, rainy November day but we had umbrellas, rain gear and determination! The neighborhoods are utterly charming, canals throughout, bordered by colorful houses, skinny sidewalks with bikes and cars squeezed in somehow. It so reminded us of Venice! Everything is so photogenic it's easy to burn through your phone's storage here! Shops and restaurants abound throughout. Would've loved to have more time to check them out but my wife did find some beautiful scarves in one. Walking the 9 Streets has been described as one of the great walks of Europe. A must see when in Amsterdam!

it's a nice mix of stores in Jordaan. Minus one star for the over-taking of some of our favorite places by "tik-tok" followers. There are lines over the bridges waiting to get bubble tea or fries. The locals can no longer go to this place thanks to this ridiculous lemen behavior. But other than that, it's like a mall but outside. Be careful of the rude cyclist trying to run you over if you step in the way. Most likely these aren't typical Dutch cyclists but tourists or expats themselves being arrogant.

The Nine Streets. It's really only 3 streets but they change the name of each street as it crosses the canals. But just kinda wander around and pop into each little cafe, shop, boutique, or pub. People are friendly and it's a lovely little afternoon stroll on a sunny or rainy day in Amsterdam. Some of the shops are tiny and some are only open at certain times but the area is very pretty so just walking and browsing with the occasional coffee is great.

BEAUTIFUL.... such a wonderful part of the city. This is an area of streets full of stores, restaurants, museums, hotels, boutiques, cafes and coffee shops

For some reason I end up walking down this street more than just about any other. Of course it is pleasantly right along my normal route to the Centraal Station. It's as much as a beautiful strolling area as it is a shopping area. Lots of wonderful shops, eateries and bars. It's a wonderful place for people watching and just kicking back with a beir or glass of wine and enjoy life going by. I suggest you look into every store you can. There are some wonderful places just hidden away. As always keep an eye and hand on your belongings.

Cute little street with mnay shops and cloth stores. I managed to buy few small gifts from the souvenirs shops and I'm happy with them. They were gifts to my self . There are many shops around that area and you can find super nice local made stuff.

Unbelievable selection of craft beers. Also you can buy a growler and fill it with a choice of about 6 different beers from a local brewery. Has the basic necessities of a small market too.

A great place for shopping in Amsterdam! Tons of cute shops with everything from cheese, chocolates, home decor items, clothing, and more. Even if you're not in the mood for shopping it's a great area to spend an afternoon just walking around and enjoying the beauty of this little neighborhood. I found some great gifts for family and friends back home as well as a few things for myself. A great place to go if you're looking for something unique.

This is a cute and picturesque boutique shopping district in West Amsterdam. Although tourists descend on the Red Light District and coffee shops in droves, I went to Amsterdam for the lovely quaintness of De Negen Straatjes and the Jordaan. I've read that the Nine Little Streets contain 190 shops. I had a little bit of trouble finding the area; Look for Haartenstraat, Wolvenstraat, and Huidenstraat and the Keizersgracht and Herengracht canals. Around Christmas, I found some lovely little houses that are supposed to house candles inside them. Cheese shops also there, and cute little eateries.

Winding narrow streets with small boutique shops, smaller sidewalks and with hidden fashion gems to the right and left. There's a canal at the end of every block so you can't go wrong with the scenery too - so take it all in. Local eateries and pubs add to the local charm or the locals. Say hello to the locals and make sure to ask for directions and pull out a map. We love that too.

I used to live in this neighborhood and loved it! You'll find tons of cute little shops, restaurants and art galleries right between the world famous canals.

Chic, trendy and cool describes the many clothing boutiques in this neighborhood while laid back and casual describes the many bars.There are a great many places to hang out and and have a beer or six and get something tasty to eat while reading the paper, a book or surfing the net. Throughout the neighborhood interesting shops full of interesting things are run by interesting people. There are a few bookstores and there are several art galleries. Comfortable, trendy and interesting restaurants are also here with a fusion of flavor or old world style.There are many flavors and types of food here and it's a great place for a stroll as three of the canals are within it's boundaries and there are so many places to window shop. It's a beautiful scenic area with it's own unique energy and a popular area for tourists because there's plenty to see along with all the places to shop or stop for a drink and a bite to eat. There are people from everywhere speaking in their native tongues while strolling through so it's also a great area to people watch. I live in the neighborhood and I love it!
