History The Binnenkant, with the Oude Waal on the opposite side, is located on the Waals-Eilandsgracht, a charming canal with a rich history dating back to the Golden Age. In the 17th century, Amsterdam was at the height of its power and prosperity as the world's most important trading center. The canal served as an important connecting route for trade ships. Warehouses were built along the banks of the Binnenkant and Oude Waal to store goods being traded. During the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, the Oude Waal lost its original function as a trade route. During the 20th century, Amsterdam underwent even more drastic changes but this stretch remained largely untouched. Meanwhile, the Binnenkant/Oude Waal is known as a hidden gem and an oasis of peace amid the hustle and bustle of the city.
