View the city from the water Amsterdam isn’t the only city famous for its canal cruises. Haarlem also has a close connection to water, with the Spaarne river meandering through the heart of city and various canals and waterways weaving their way between ancient monuments and sights. It’s a beautifully relaxed way to explore the city, and a great way to get your bearings before setting off to explore the sights in more detail. The River Spaarne, Spaarne , 2011 AV HAARLEM
