de Berlage brug over de Amstel

View of the Amstel from the Berlage ridge. River Amstel after which Amsterdam is named. A dam in the Amstel, where the Dam is now, Amstelredamme.
If you keep walking along the Amstel you will arrive at Ouderkerk aan de Amstel. Along the way you will come across a number of country houses. Rich Amsterdammers used to leave the city in the summer because it smelled terribly.
