The city's name is derived from the dam constructed to control flooding in the region. The historical center is defined by a 17th-century canal ring, which is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site. This network consists of three primary concentric waterways: the Herengracht, Keizersgracht, and Prinsengracht. The architecture within this district features narrow.
